I have been trying to install the Debain Nginx perfect server on the Google Cloud Platform. https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/perfect-server-debian-jessie-nginx-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3.1/ I have set up a static IP and opened up the firewall ports but I keep getting a Apache2 Debian Default Page instead of the ISPConfig control panel login. The installation seemed to go fine but I was not able to properly set up the /etc/network/interfaces file and ended up with: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp ifconfig reports back my internal IP and not my external IP What has to be done to make ISPConfig work on GCP. Thanks for your help
The network things should be ok, seems as Google puts their servers into a private network with a router in front, so it's basically as if you would host your server in home or at office. This should not affect ISPConfig that much. Check the google firewall / router to ensure that port 8080 is open and pointing from the external IP to the right internal IP. Then check with netstat command that nginx is started and listening on port 8080 too.
