Fwd: What's up with That?
Copying of Phillip's response to the list. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Phillip Ponchot <pponchot@live.com> Date: 21 December 2013 09:04 Subject: RE: [Koha] What's up with That? To: David Nind <david.nind@gmail.com> Thanks David for replying. Here is a link to the instructions: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages The message that I'm getting is just that the apache web server is active. This takes place anytime I use the browser with: http://ipaddress: 80. I'll have to wait until I go back into work to find get the original message. Thing in your email that may fix the problem: I did not disable the default web browser site. The server is not listening on port 8080 only on port 80. Other things: Other instructions indicate that I should delete the default web site also. One set of intructions says I should delete the koha website and then start a new one under the name of my instance as shown below. ( http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/Koha/Installation) - Disable the default website. *Remember to disable this after a software upgrade when using the packages method.* sudo a2dissite 000-default - Disable the default koha website. *Remember to disable this after a software upgrade when using the packages method.* sudo a2dissite koha - Enable the custom "library" web site. sudo a2ensite library - Restart the apache2 web server sudo service apache2 restart I'm going back in to try this again tonight. Hang in there, Phillip
Greeetings,
This takes place anytime I use the browser with: http://ipaddress: 80.
The instructions are for a NAME based install, you can't use the IP address. You need to set up a DNS to point to it, OR you intentionally set the hosts file for the machine you are trying to use to access the server. The latter being the wrong way to do it. The former being the normal, nice way to do it in a networked environment. Since you insist on using IP ADDRESS, rather than NAME (same instructions, but change the one koha-sites.conf part to this): ------------------ /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf DOMAIN=".myDNSname.org" # Change this to be your domain. INTRAPORT="8080" # TCP listening port for the administration interface INTRAPREFIX="" INTRASUFFIX="" DEFAULTSQL="" OPACPORT="80" # TCP listening port for the users' interface OPACPREFIX="" OPACSUFFIX="" ZEBRA_MARC_FORMAT="marc21" # Possible values are 'marc21', 'normarc' and 'unimarc' ZEBRA_LANGUAGE="en" # Possible values are 'en', 'fr' and 'nb' ------------------ This means that the OPAC client with be: http://ipaddress:80/ The staff client will be: http://ipaddress:8080/ And if you do get around to having a proper NAME using DNS: http://library.myDNSname.org:80 will be the OPAC http://library.myDNSname.org:8080 will be the Staff client GPML, Mark Tompsett
