if you have hard time Starting/activating Apache - disable W3SVC below; this will free up the port needed by Apache

4. When you completely run the 3 services you can verify the ports by clicking Port-Check of the XAMPP Console

Once you had allowed the above 3 FTP rules you can now test your connectivity with your FTP

9. Now you can try your connectivity to your newly created FTP Server
  • Using your WinSCP
  • the default server IP address is the ip of your pc, which in mine is 192.168.1.49
-on the encryption use TSL/SSL Explicit encryption
- input your created user, my username used below is xftp, then input your password

10. After inputting your login details and pressing login. your WinSCP will communicate to your FileZilla FTP Server shown below.
1636102630139.png

now you have your own local FTP Server...

You may also access your file through http by inputting your server ip address on your favorite web browser and the name_of_shared_folder.
192.168.1. 49/update.pldt.net - this is my configuration

TS yun xampp bagamat may FTP server eh it seems overkill kung yun lang ang kailangan. Xampp is a bloated solution, relatively speaking. Meron naman open source FTP server like filezilla na hindi na kelangan ng ganyang setup unlike sa xampp. Straightforward pa.

Just saying. 😊

Yes kung magpapatakbo ka ng webserver to host your own website then xampp is an all-in-one solution na. But not if you just want to have an ad-hoc file server.

Naaawa ako sa mga susunod ng post po, forgive me for hijacking your thread, but let me share a simple solution for those wishing to have their own FTP server running Android. This has an added bonus that you get the BEST FILE MANAGER for Android as well.

Downgrade? :unsure: Posible sa 2040-2973, pero kung 2993-3002 na wala ng rollback firmware 2159-2973 na nakasave. Goodluck nalang. ✌️:D
