wordpress installation running wordpress running on XAMPP
Are you using XAMPP instead of the usual LAMP server?
Apologies, my wording makes no sense re-reading it. What i have done is install XAMPP standard windows install. Then,created a database in phpmyadmin, then installed wordpress in htdocs. I then setup wordpress through localhost (system with a static ip address) once that was done i used Dynu DDNS to get it accessible over the internet. But my problem is i can only load the page over http protocol rather than https and every time i try to access it via the latter i get an error 401
That’s more of a server configuration problem, not WordPress. The SSL certificate needs to be installed in XAMPP. I suggest to read more information about setting up a LAMP server instead
Ok, it seems the general consensus is leading to – use a different hosting software so im going to look into setting up a LAMP Server config instead. Thanks.
That’s correct. XAMPP is more oriented for development, not a full server.
All in the learning curve it seems, Well thankyou for your assistance – ill mark this as resolved, because of it’s depreciation.
