connect android device to local server xampp

Question

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

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".

I am not sure how i can configure it so that the device can use this address.

Thanks

What local server? Is this on your computer?

Well, the phone needs to be on the local network (via wifi) or you need to change your httpd-xampp.conf to allow non-local clients to connect to your server, if it's accessible from outside of the network (I doubt it is).

What IP does your computer have? What IP does your phone have? How are you trying to access your local xampp server?
