Can't access ZM from external computer

gazoo · Post by **gazoo** » Mon Nov 30, 2009 1:29 pm

I have Ubuntu 9.10, ZM 1.24.x.

I have it all working fine, even the shared memory fault is gone. I can get to ZM via http://localhost/zm. However, when I go to it via another computer on the same network (same subnet), it hangs for a while and then I get nothing.

It seems like a LAMP problem, but I'm not sure. I was wondering if anyone had run into anything like this since you have more experience with this than I do (second day).

Thanks!

ok first off localhost refers to the pc you using so when you go to local host on other pcs you get that pcs webserver. so in order to get to you server you need its ip address

so on the zm server open terminal and type ifconfig

it will say something like
[quote

br0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1f:c6:a4:42:ee
inet addr:10.0.0.116 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0

inet addr:10.0.0.116

so you would type

http://10.0.0.116/zm [/quote]

I will try that when I get back home tonight. However, what happens if it works under localhost but not its IP address?

It's working..seems it was ok and maybe the computer never finished rebooting when I tried to go to it.
