• Web Server Weirdness

I have a computer at home running Windows XP Pro and among other things, Abyss Web Server. I have webcam timershot take a picture every five seconds into a shared directory. I have been able to access this from my website for a few days now (A PHP script changes the header to the most used colour) and today I was having some issues with port forwarding, so I fixed it. Now I can't access it from the website from the PHP script or PHProxy, but other people outside my network can see it fine as well as from other proxies on other sites. PHProxy on my website can access other sites fine... Just my website gets the error: URL Error (110): An error has occured while trying to browse through the proxy. Failed to connect to the specified host. Possible problems are that the server was not found, the connection timed out, or the connection refused by the host. Try connecting again and check if the address is correct. The only thing I've changed on my home network was changing forwarded ports (Still using the same one for web, 8080, just removing some others) and switching DNS servers. Though none of these should be a problem for a single PC not being able to view it. I'm using Fivebean shared hosting if it matters...
Sure you don't have a firewall somewhere, blocking the new ports?
[QUOTE=Tools;18813751]Sure you don't have a firewall somewhere, blocking the new ports?[/QUOTE] Other people outside my network can access it, which is odd. I'll try running the server on a new port. [editline]12:37PM[/editline] I've tried changing ports, changing DNS servers, changing computers the web server was on, changing web server programs, resetting the router, making a sandwich... Though my shared hosting account CANNOT see my fucking home server!
