XAMPP won't open PHP files in directory (Mac)

All the servers are running correctly in XAMPP, and I when I run http://localhost the XAMPP page comes up. However when I try to run a php through xampp by accessing the directory where the file is stored, i.e.,

http://localhost/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/gallery.php

I get error 404. I've tried loads of different paths, but here is the path to the file in finder path image

Any ideas?

Thanks!

your webserver is resolving the domain localhost to a specific directory, the so called document root. (this can be adjusted in your server config). I would assume that it points to /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs. so your file should be accessible via

http://localhost/gallery.php
