Ubuntu :: Can't Access Apache Server On The Local Network
Oct 11, 2010
I'm trying to set up a small Intranet system to run OpenERP or similar using browser-based clients. I have an Ubuntu machine running 10.04 desktop edition to act as a temporary/testing server until we set up a proper, dedicated machine with 10.04 server edition. I have installed Apache2 from the repos and it is up and running fine - locally. That is the problem, I can't access the server from other machines on the LAN. Ping works, btw. So I've been reading tutorials and howtos for the past week, but for the life of me, I can't find what I'm doing wrong. The standard Apache setup seems to be made to "just work", so although I've looked at the various configuration files mentioned in the tutorials, I haven't actually changed anything.

I'm trying to setup an Apache webserver on my computer in order to practice HTML5/CSS3 for an upcoming competition I'm in. I'm able to access my site from inside my network, but I cannot outside my network. I've had several people try, and they all report that the server just times out. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and Apache 2.2.17
My site is at [URL]
Here is the output of ifconfig
Code:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:26:22:50:0f:0a
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
[Code]....

I have installed Ubuntu on four machines at work and have been blown away. On my machine I have Apache setup for web development and other machines can "see" it using my IP address. I would like to have it so they can access by the name of my computer though. I have no local DNS server so I guess I need to hard code the relationship in each machine? Ideally I'd actually like to be able to use subdomains (which I use locally to avoid annoying .htaccess path problems). i.e. from another machine on the network to go to [URL].

I am running opensuse with LAMP, and this is my first time setting up this type of server (usually am a windows junkie) My problem i am having is that I am unable to view my website from outside the local network. I have setup my router for a dynamic dns and forwarded all the ports through the router and the local firewall. I ran the apache setup through YAST2 and everything seems fine locally but when i attempt to access it elsewhere its not connecting. computechsolutions.dyndns.biz is the dynamic dns address i have setup through my router.

Running Ubuntu 9.10. In the Remote Desktop config dialog I get: "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 127.0.0.1 or tabatha.local." I understand this means only the loopback ip address is available. All my other machines show their true local ip address (e.g., 192.168.1.104) in this dialog. Thus I cannot log on to this desktop from other machines.
When I try to do a remote logon from another Ubuntu 9.10 box (or from an XP box using a VNC viewer), I get: "Connection to 192.168.1.102 has been closed." What steps are needed to make this machine show its actual ip address? All file sharing between the various machines is working properly and all windows shares back and forth between XP and 'nix, and among the the vaious XP boxes and linux boxes are available as designed.

How to make apache 2 accessible only on the local network? I have installed it in the easy way (but not the best, probably):
Code:
sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-mysql mysql-server
And now I want to make apache only accessible in my local network.

I've tried, but now I give up. I'm trying to run Apache on FC9. Nothing fancy, no extras, just the default installed apache. [correction, I have coldfusion installed, however the service is not running] I've set the Listen variable to every combination I could think of, with no success. I can set it whatever I like (such as my local IP) on any port other than port 80. If I try to set it to 192.168.x.x:80, it gives me the error message:
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 192.168.x.x:80
I've run netstat commands to try and find applications listening on port 80 and found nothing. Whenever I chose a port other than 80 to get the service to start successfully, I am able to serve pages locally. But even with my ports forwarded correctly, no one outside the local network can see it. I've checked with nmap that my machine is opening the ports and even cheated, disabling the firewall during testing to ensure it was not part of the problem.
I noticed while locally nmaping my server that whenever I set Listen 192.168.x.x:8081, 8081 is opened, as well as normal port 80. When I stop the httpd service, both those ports are simultaneously closed. Why is httpd opening port 80? I'm assuming this is related to why I cannot assign Listen to port 80. If I run remote scans from sites like www.nmap-online.com and www.canyouseeme.org, nmap-online will report filtered on ports 80 and 8081 if my httpd is running, and if httpd stopped, 80 is closed, filtered 8081.
Can you seem reports success on ports 80 and 8081 if httpd is running, fail if httpd is stopped. I'm sure thats all a lot of information cluttered in to all that. To summarize, I cannot start my httpd server on port 80, and I cannot ever see my webpages beyond my local network. Am I missing something extremely is simple and I'm just over looking it?

The situation is this, I have one of those router cable/wifi. So I have the main pc plugged to the router, the router give local ip for all my network (the others computers connects via wi-fi). Main pc starts up apache under Fedora 12, http://localhost.. works, http://127.0.0.1.. works, http://192.168.0.13 (my local ip) works. But when I try to connect to http://192.168.0.13 from another pc of my local network, it doesn't work. The others pcs are running windows vista.
I go another computers ping 192.168.0.13, responds!
From the main computer ping 192.168.0.14, responds!
So, there is communication between the machines, but I cant get to work under apache. I tried opening port 80 with iptables, i tried changing apache's port to another.

I'm running OpenSuse 11.3 X64. I have installed apache2, PHP5 and MySQL in order to do some web-design offline e.g. they are for internal network use only. There is also phpMyAdmin installed. The default directory for the "server" is /srv/www/htdocs.
To access a specific site in progress I create a subfolder there then just navigate via h**p://10.13.23.201/NAMEOFFOLDER from my internal network. At least that is how it should work but it doesn't. I created a new folder called wlc so it's directory is /srv/www/htdocs/wlc however when I go to the address h**p://10.13.23.201/wlc I get a Remote Server Or File Not Found error from my browser, there is files in there ,index.php, that should load and apache has been set to recognize *.php files.
I know the theory should work as I can access /srv/www/htdocs/phpMyAdmin by going to h**p://10.13.23.201/phpMyAdmin and it loads just fine. Also the error is different if I go to a folder that doesn't exist for example h**p://10.13.23.201/THISFOLERDOESNTEXISIT will return an Object Not Found error.

I have a base install of a LAMP server on my system, and I'm trying to get mod_rewrite working on that local server (the directory of the local site is [URL]. I added this to my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file, which was blank before I did so:
Code:
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
[code]....
It's supposed to redirect everything except the listed directories to index.php, which is used as a front controller. However, if I type in [URL] <any other page> I get a 404 error.

I've been researching this all day with no luck thus far. Basically I need to cutoff port 21/ftp access from IP addresses outside of my local network. My local IP range is something like 192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.150 -- so anything outside of this range would automatically be blocked.
Any IP address outside of this range would be denied as I use SFTP for remote access, etc. from home, etc.
I've researched IP tables, tcp wrappers, etc. but am still unsure which would be best for what is probably a simple fix.
Relevant info: Vsftpd via Ubuntu Server 10.10

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to configure apache or any other linux http server, to allow the visiting user to start applications installed locally on the http server and get the GUI of that application displayed in a java applet (or any other similar solution). In short, I'm looking for an alternative solution to proprietary technologies such as Citrix and Microsoft Remote Access Gateway.

The desktop computer stores most of our family's files and is mostly powered on, installed with Debian/openSUSE (KDE4).
We have 2 more portable (also Linux, KDE4) computers and frequently need to access files stored in the desktop. Currently file transferred is by usb thumbdrive which is troublesome.
The computers are all connected to a wireless router that provides access to the internet.
Reading/goolging and understand that there are many ways to share files to the extend that I am lost - Samba, NFS, SSH .....
My problem is to find out: What is the best way to access computers within the local network? "Best" here means:
- Secure
- Relative ease to setup
- Easy to use, file access with GUI (file manager?) as the entire family is using the computers.

I am installing Big Brother on a CentOS 5.2 running the default Apache 2.2.3. When I try to access any web page I get the following error: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /bb/ on this server. Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Server at fmsubbnix Port 80 So far I have:
1) Set the Directory options to FollowSymLinks
2) Verified all directory and file permissions are at 755
3) Set permissions temporarily to 777 and received same error so I am assuming the issue is in a config file somewhere
4) in hhtpd.conf verified <Files ~ "^.ht"> is correct
5) verified the "default" directory is correct (/var/www/html)
I have read and tried several ideas in posts listed on the web but to no avail and am at a loss as to what to look for next..

I currently have an Apache Web Server running on Ubuntu 10.4 and I use a DynDNS service to make them accessible to the outside world via a domain and/or subdomain.
My configs currently look like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin <obscured>@<obscured>.com
ServerName <subdomain>.<obscured>.com
ServerAlias <subdomain>
[Code].....
This works fine from access outside of the network and all subdomains resolve to the correct directory.
The problem I am having is with accessing a subdomain over my internal network.
I can access the Web Server using the server's IP address: http://192.168.1.123/ but this always takes me to the same virtual host and I don't know how to distinguish between different virtual hosts (different subdomains).
Ideally I would like to access the same subdomains using http://<subdomain>/ where <subdomain> is the same as the subdomain attached to the external domain name.

I'm having a problem when I try to connect to my apache2 server from any client in my network using the .local address with the firewall on. I opened the port 5353 UDP but I still can't connect. The only way I can connect is disabling the firewall which I don't like to do on the server. What I'm doing wrong?

I installed Apache server with Debian 5.0.2 Lenny. I am trying to write a script which would analysis web log files. I found the log files on /var/log/apache2. There is an access log file, `access.log`. My question is what configuration file determines the location and the name of the access log file. How can I change them? I used CustomLog in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf like below.LogFormat ": %h %l %u %t "%r" %>s %b" common
CustomLog /home/test/my_log_file common Apache2 generated /home/test/my_log_file. But no logs were written in the file even after I run `/etc/init.d/apache2 restart`. Ichanged the log file location. It still didn't work. However, Apache2 still wrote logs in the file `/var/log/apache2/access.log`

I have a file 'my_file.txt' stored on 'myserver1.col.edu' Now, I am using a different server 'myserver2.col.edu' to do some work and I want to access 'my_file.txt' on 'myserver1.col.edu' to read (possibly edit) WITHOUT physically copying the entire file across. Is there a way to do this - perhaps through ssh?

In my computer networking class I have the option of doing a project where I set up a dns server for our classroom network. The problem is that this network is totally separate from the school network and we aren't allowed to connect it to the internet. I want all the machines to ping each other by name instead of ip using dns instead of host files on all 20 computers. I read on a site somewhere that you cannot do this because the dns queries will always go to the root servers. Is this correct? Is there some way I can do this using dns? The machine in question is using Ubuntu 9.04.

i would like to setup one of my old pcs as a file server and internet gateway; we are living in a large building shared with 40 others. the ubuntu box would be the one connected to the internet via ethernet and sharing connexion via wifi. i haven't started yet - presently, i am doing the ground work and reading before to start i understand sharing the internet is relatively simple and can be done from the GUI
What we would like is slightly like BT Fon or BT Open Zone in the UK: you can hook on a free network but in order to access outside (internet: email, web, ftp, etc) you need to login login would help us monitor fair usage. I imagine something with username and password for each user would do: as we are a few in the same building not everyone is actually paying for the connection and we don't want to end up with rather large excess bills. So the ones who are paying access both files and internet; those who dont just have access to the files on the local server.
Do i need Ubuntu server to set this up? What hardware would be ideal - given we are all far from rich but willing to have a nice setup
It would be great if you could share some knowledge around the topic and eventually provide some tutorial; also any heads-up on the hardware side would be great! (signal booster, etc - there's 3 floors and 3 buildings)

I have a fresh fedora 13 install, I managed to browse and setup my phpadmin.....and browse everthing locally. I can not browse the web site from any other machine in my network. All my machines get their IPs from my dhcp (192.168.1.0).I googled and read a thread in this forum, I understood it might be due to SELINUX. I disabled it, rebooted, still have the same behavior, browse my apache locally but not from other machines. I did a telnet from one of my machines using the IP as followstelnet 192.168.1.11 80got the following onnecting To 192.168.1.11...Could not open connection to the host, on port 80: Connect failed.I checked error-log and access_log file, found no hint. I think it should be something related to some fedora systemor firewall or selinux config that is not allowing access to it.
