I have installed Apache Server over Windows 2003 server.. I am running my apps greenstone on port no 8080. What is happeneing now if i access greenstone directly on the server giving the command "http://localhost:8080/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi The application runs perfectly.
I dont have a domain name set for this currently but have a live IP address.. When i try to access the apache server using the IP Address I am not being able to access the website..I get the error "The connection has timed out"..The address that i am giving is htttp://ipaddress:8080/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi.
Can u pls guide me if any extra settings have to be set for the Apache server in order to access it remotely.
If i give the address on the local server http://localhost:8080/ i get a Text It Works!! on the web page
If i give the address as http://ipaddress:8080 on the local serveri get the error Page cannot be displayed..
I guess it ssome configuration problem on the apache..Could u pls guide me further on it
thx |

| Do you use a router or a firewall? It sound more like a portforwarding issue. Or did you set the Listen to a specific IP? |

I think you need to configure a vhost for your site like this
Create a virtualhost (which will be your default site served )
| Code: |
ProxyRequests off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080
|
Also try to log which vhost is serving the the application by adding
to your vhost
| Code: |
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/site-resp_log some_name
LogFormat "%t %{X-Forwarded-For}i %v %h %a{can I put} %A" some_name
|
Try to see in log files if the request http://%{Live IP}:8080
is actually reaching your website or not.
You can use httplive a firefox addon to find the Location Headers as where from the site is being served. |
