title: connect android device to local server xampp
body: <p>I have an android application which takes data from the local server. I works properly on the emulator. But i need help as to how i can achieve this on the device itself. I have tried using the ipv4 but xampp gives a error which states </p>
  
  <pre><code>Access forbidden!
  
  New XAMPP security concept:
  
  Access to the requested directory is only available from the local network.
  
  This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not sure how i can configure it so that the device can use this address.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks </p>
