PS3 - Solution to PKG Linker via LAN not working on HEN

Forum Noob
I started this thread just to share a solution for a problem that I had with PKG Linker. I couldn't get PKG Linker to work via cable connection, I tried (almost) everything, like changing to PKG Linker 1.0, internet connection sharing and bridge connection, but nothing worked. Yes, I changed the IP address of my PS3 and my PC. Then I realized the problem was with the apache portable. I followed the trouble-shooting section of the forum of PKG Linker 2.0 here on psx-place and I found out that I could use the apache from XAMPP as my server. I installed XAMPP and then I copied the PKG Linker files into the htdocs folder of XAMPP (usually located in C:/xampp) and just liked that my problem was solved.

I'm currently on HFW 4.86 with HEN 3.0.1

I know the problem was with my computer that couldn't run well apace portable 32 bits, but I chose this title for better ilustration.

Sorry for any misspelled words, english is not my native language and that's why I created this thread, to help others like me.

Here's the link to the PKG Linker 2.0 forum (don't forget, the trouble-shooting section has the instructions to use XAMPP as an alternative server): https://www.psx-place.com/threads/pkg-linker-2-0-serve-packages-to-your-ps3-han-cfw.17252/
