Ubuntu Networking :: Cannot Access Apache Server Pages From Outside Local Network
Jan 26, 2011
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

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.

Up until yesterday I was able to access these devices through the web interfaces that they use. I'm running Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 I have 3 PCs running on my network, and 2 NAS devices: Ubuntu (main computer, also has an XP partition)) - static IP 192.168.1.30 Ubuntu netbook - DHCP IP Windows XP (HTPC) - static 192.168.1.50 Linksys NSLU2 (was running Debian, problem arose when trying different configuration, now back to stock firmware) - static IP 192.168.1.100 Dlink DSM-G600 - static IP 192.168.1.120
I used to be able to able access these just fine using my main Ubuntu setup. Now, it will no longer display the pages. Internet access is fine, i can even access my DSL/Router device's internal config page. The netbook and the Windows HTPC can both log into these devices, as well as the XP partition of the Ubuntu system. I have tried using a VM of XP within Ubuntu, bridging the network device, i have the same symptoms - internet is fine, cannot access local network web-logins.
Access to fileshares among all machines remains unchanged. another odd behavior is that i can SSH into the NSLU2 device from all the machines, but i get odd things from this computer - it will let me log in, asks for a username and pass, but if i run anything like mc or htop, it just blanks the terminal in an odd way. from other computers the login and display are fine.

I can connect to anything locally, I can SSH in locally but nothing works from outside my network (can't access pages in apache, can SSH, etc.) I've checked the logs I can think of, but what should I be looking for? The last thing I did today was add a FW rule to log and drop from an IP, saved my iptables to a file in /etc. (this was at 10:45am). The last time I successfully logged in remotely 1:03pm. I connected multiple times in between. I've rebooted remotely once or twice. That's it. I've already flushed iptables.

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 own several websites and have always developed on my local Apache server.
I am in the middle of releasing a new product on one of my sites and have been making rapid changes to the site based on feedback from customers, etc. as my product has gone live...
My local server is NOT refreshing pages. I make a change, click "refresh" in my browser and nothing happens.
I have tried clearing my browser cache and it makes no difference. Eventually (several minutes later) my changes happen.
Problem is, I need to be making these changes rapidly, and I really prefer to check my work on localhost before uploading it to a live server where I'm getting a lot of visitors right now.
This is a very recent problem as I have never had this occur before. Running 10.04.

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.

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.

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 have downloaded the Apache web server so I can set up a local web server to test my PHP pages. The download automatically went into the default "Downloads" folder instead of the /opt folder where the Apache instructions said to download the file to. I have tried to move the file from the Downloads folder to the /opt folder but am denied access - says I don't have enough privileges (or some such thing?). Bummer.
So I tried to use the terminal to install the file that I downloaded from Apache (following their instructions - actually copied/pasted the command line so there would be no typo problem) - no joy.
The first thing I was instructed to do was to enter the su command, which I did, and was asked for a password. I have tried every password I have ever used on this system and I receive the following:
su: Authentication failure
and it returns me to the prompt. What is my password?
I checked the archives for similar problems and came up with zero relevant hits.

I would like to set-up a pretty fast a running apache. I would like to use him so to launch a pretty small web site of 10 static html pages. At this time there is no security concerns (even though I want to do it right) , because the computer has not even ethernet cable. I have some experience, 8 years ago I Was setting up virtual hosts in fedora, so this process is not a blackbox for me.

I have a Cent OS 5.4 32 bit final installed in my dedicated server.
I used to run lighttpd with php in my server until now and all was fine.But yesterday I changed my website which needs apache to run. So installed apache using yum install httpd command.
Then I added the virtual host name of my domain in webmin panel but when i try to run my php script in browser then its not opening php pages.
Instead it downloads php files like index.php when i open in browser.So I guess apache is not able to compile and run php pages. Only html pages are opening right now..

I have apache running on my server, and also Zoneminder, a surveillance system running on the same machine. Both services runs without glitches, and I think apache's config as well as ZM's config are fine. I am not sure I understand how apache (not to mention the whole thing zoneminder, apache, web browser...) works. Pretty hard to manage when you dont know what you are doing. Also, when I try the supposed to work zoneminder webpage in my web browser, I get nothing (a blank page), or sometimes a "Not found" error message. The latest seems to be from apache because it is the same font as the "It works!" message when I try http://localhost:80
The only bit of information I have so far is in the apache error log (/var/log/httpd/error_log) and it says:
Code:
[Sun Mar 21 00:35:14 2010] [error] [client 192.168.0.100] script '/srv/httpd/htdocs/zm.php' not found or unable to stat
[Sun Mar 21 00:46:04 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /srv/httpd/htdocs/zm
It seems that the "zm.php" is missing.... That would be why Apache cant find the page?

I am trying to set up my Apache server with FastCGI as the CGI engine. It will be mostly running PHP, but I may add Perl or something else later. I started from a completely fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 with every update available. I used the install CD to install a LAMP server as part of the system install.I am using the tutorial at URL...to add the FastCGI functionality. I am having some problems with getting everything to work.The first problem was that apache2-suexec-custom wouldn't accept a different document root. I fixed that by compiling apache2-suexec from source with the document root changed to the correct path.
The next problem is that every php page I load throws a 500 error. Apache's error logs show that FastCGI isn't returning the page data correctly to Apache.

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 just tried changed the port that apache runs on from 80 to 8080 (I need port 80 for a difference service so I am changing the apache port). After doing this I load 127.0.0.1:8080 in a browser and get a 404 error generated by apache, if I change it back to 80 it works fine.

I have 2 servers that are mirrored. They host 3 separate websites. Two of these websites are regular HTTP and the other is HTTPS with Digest authentication as well. The reason there are 2 servers is because one is a primary and the other secondary in case the primary goes down. Recently I decided to upgrade the secondary server then make it the primary server. I have done most of the configuration and the sites using regular HTTP are working perfectly fine. The page using SSL is not. Apache fails to load and here are the errors I am receiving the the error log file:
Code:
[Fri Aug 13 09:27:00 2010] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `newserver.domain.com' does NOT match server name!?
[Fri Aug 13 09:27:00 2010] [error] Unable to configure RSA server private key
[Fri Aug 13 09:27:00 2010] [error] SSL Library Error: 185073780 error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch
For the first warning, I cannot find anywhere that says the CN "newserver.domain.com", only what the CN is in the SSL key. I have no idea where to even start with the other errors.

Most of my googling odysseies lead me to articles which talk about compiling apache & php from the source as this is touted to be more flexible. But the problem we have is this...we already have an apache 2 web server running. Now how do we serve php pages of it.

I set up my first web server and it works flawlessly -when accessed from external network or from other computers on my lan. However, I cannot access it from the computer where the server is run on. I have found numerous people with similar problems but the flavour I am experiencing is somewhat different and no solutions I have found apply to it.
I have two network interfaces on my server, eth0 (public static IP connected to internet directly) and eth1 connected to LAN 192.168.1.0/24 range. The server is 192.168.1.1. It is connected directly to the internet and serves as a SNAT for other comps on the lan.I added "192.168.1.1 www_server_com" to the /etc/hosts on the server and also on the other machines on the LAN. All the other machines can open website without any problem.HOwever, the server itself only opens website if the address islhost. Internal IP, i.e. 192.168.1.1. gets a time out and so does www_server_com ( I cant use dots as I do not have more than 15 posts on the forum )Here is the firewall script I am using.
#!/bin/sh

I rented a server to run CS 1.6 game servers. I had someone install Apache and configure my server to be able to use control panel for my game servers( i am running 4 gservers and have 5 ips = 1 ip is free). When i type my primary ip in the web browser it displays the Apache test page.
My question is can i add pages to the Apache without messing up anything with the control panel or my game servers. I am familiar with html. My primary ip is used for 1 of th egame servers but i can change that if necessary. And if possible to add pages how to add a site name, sth like [url] instead of entering the primary ip to display the content.

HOwever, the server itself only opens website if the address is localhost. Internal IP, i.e. 192.168.1.1. gets a time out and so does www.server.com.I do not understand why the record in etc/hosts doesn't point it in the right direction. It seems that when I open address 192.168.1.1 it still gets routed to the external network. I have seen using DNAT to deal with the problem but it didn't work in my case (maybe I didn't do it correctly). I have spent whole evening/night trying to sort it out, it's 4AM now, going to bed frustrated and angry (at myself hahaha). Still like linux very much, won't be going to windows anymore. Please help
