I heard already about dual stack. But ::1 does not work on my computer with Windows 7 and the Internet Explorer. Then I get an error message. In Dutch: "Het adres is ongeldig". That is: "The address is not valid".
But I understand: It is difficult to know all the quirks of the new and old IP-systems.
In every case you did your best to help me. Thank you very much!! Very Happy

Yes, it worked with the brackets!
This was my first practical introduction to IPv6! Thank you!

I thought: Everything is OK now, with my Apache installation. But in an other thread of this forum I was adviced to read an other thread yet:
http://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=2394
There I read:

Before installing ANYTHING else, ensure Apache will start. Open a command prompt and navigate to the BIN folder of Apache:
1. At the prompt enter httpd
2. If there's anything seriuosly wrong Apache will not start - the cursor will drop down one line and blink (you should be able to use your browser and navigate to http://localhost and see "It Work!".

So I tried it. But I got an error message. Apache has started already. So I stopped Apache with the triangle in the taskbar (which became a dot), and I tried it again.
Then the cursor dropped down one line and blinked. The tiangle did not return. Does that mean that I have installed Apache in a wrong way?

When Apache is not installed correctly, maybe I shall get problems later.

All looks fine.

Using ApacheMonitor (triangle) is when running as a service.

In command prompt Apache runs as application.
