How to make WAMP accessible over the internet?

localhost, portforwarding, wamp, wampserver

Solution

I'm using Wampserver 2.5 64bit on window 7, and this is what I found:

//You need to find this

# Controls who can get stuff from this server. #
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Require local

then change to

# Controls who can get stuff from this server. #
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Require all granted

Then you can access your site via `LAN IP address`. For example `http://192.168.2.7/`.

However, this may cause a bug that makes Wampserver can not be restarted.

Problem

I am quite new to web development. I have this web application I developed using PHP and MySQL that works on my WAMP server. I want to share it with a cousin for tips and suggestions. I want to make my WAMP server accessible to him. So, how do I do it? All I have is a computer running Windows 7 and an internet connection. :-P P.S. - Additional suggestions are welcome as well. Because I think this is a basic problem that starters in web development will face and I want the optimal solution to come out so that it helps others as well. Thanks!
