i am not able to access https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080 from an outside network, the address times out. I can access locally on my office network . i have verified my router, isp, server ports all working and listening. I have also confirmed the ispconfig config file to be listening on 8080. my ssl is all fine. but from another network when attempting to go the the url https://example.com:8080, it times out everytime it is my last bug to work out, very grateful for any solutions? Cheers, Kevin
Most likely a router issue. some routers have 8080 reserved for themself. Try to change the port 8080 to e.g. 8090 in the ispconfig vhost file (apache) to see if it works with that port.
thanks for replying till, ive changed the port in the two vhosts files to the port # i want. ive also configured the port forwarding and and ispconfig is confirm to be listening on that port. when i attempt to access now is give me a 400 error Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please. does this mean i have to remake my ssl certs? again, i can access locally but not from an external network
is there any other files that need to be changed possible after updating the vhost for ispconfig that you know of?
