can't reach public_adress:8080

Hi!

I can now log in to my ISPconfig if I use a lan-adress : 192.168.0.101:8080
If I change the IP-adress to 192.168.0.199:8080
It still work.

But when I changes my ip-adress to a public adress: 193.*.*.*:8080
(I also changed my dns adress in /etc/resolv.conf)
Now ISPconfig doesn't work.

But my dns is correct because when i try my two domains, it points correctly to my server.

Could be two reasons, imo

1) Maybe your ISP blocked the 8080 port.

Solution: In that case change it to a port that is open and enable ssl for security (Read Till's comprehensive post here: http://www.faqforge.com/linux/controlpanels/ispconfig3/enable-ssl-for-the-ispconfig-3-controlpanel/)

2) Maybe you are using a firewall like shorewall and you set a policy now allowing anything from net to your machine. Maybe some rules. And in case of shorewall, it is categorically warned by the developer of Shorewall (Tom Eastep) that one cannot access the machine from inside (loc) using the pulbic IP.

Solution: Install tor and polipo in your machine (torproject.org) and then install tor button in your firefox. Then point your public IP to your port and you can render the pages.

Hope that helps. z

 

Also, if you have local and public addresses are you using a router? Is the router set to forward port 8080 to the correct local address?

 

thanks for your reply!

If I try cmd: telnet public_ip 8080 it's work - that's really strange for me.

Just in case, I tried this -> http://www.faqforge.com/linux/contro...-controlpanel/)

Nothing happen.

I use iptables and I have turned port 8080 on. i have even turn iptable off.
still not work (telnet public_adr 8080 - work). but webmail phpmyadmin and other sites work very well, but not ISPconfig.

I go back to my ordinary lan ip-address, ispconfig work. hehe..

I can't understand why ispconfig not work in my public_adress:8080
I have even installed ispconfig to use port 80 and 443.

 

Hi. thanks for you reply. yes it is.

 

Hi!
I think i found whats wrong.
I used this commando -->
apachectl -S

printed -->
===============
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
_default_:443 192.168.0.101 (/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:86)
*:8080 is a NameVirtualHost
default server 192.168.0.101 (/etc/httpd/conf/sites-enabled/000-ispconfig.vhost:10)
port 8080 namevhost 192.168.0.101 (/etc/httpd/conf/sites-enabled/000-ispconfig.vhost:10)
*:80 is a NameVirtualHost
default server gakks.com (/etc/httpd/conf/sites-enabled/gakks.com.vhost:7)
port 80 namevhost gakks.com (/etc/httpd/conf/sites-enabled/gakks.com.vhost:7)
Syntax OK

===============

Ip address should be my public address, right?
How do i change it?
When i try for example to cat 000-ispconfig.vhost:10, i got nothing out.

 

FIXED!!

I forgot to change IP-address at: ServerName 193.*.*.*:80
in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

thanks
