[Koha] FW: Can only access OPAC or Staff client

[Doug Dearden]

Hi Kelsey,

I think what you want is to make your OPAC and your staff client both listen on port 80, and use the ServerName directive to distinguish between the two.

Thanks, Doug.

This'll work in a pinch and get us through.

I'm curious, though, why we'd have to force the port -- shouldn't the name matching in the virtual hosts make forcing the port unnecessary?  I think there's some hiccup in the configurations that's interfering with this working with standard-port-less URLs.  I shouldn't have had to move the staff client off of 80 at all if the name-matching was working...

Hi Kelsey,

For your OPAC use library.kohaesfl.org<http://library.kohaesfl.org> (defaults to port 80)
For your staff client use library.kohaesfl.org:8080<http://library.kohaesfl.org:8080> (forces use of port 8080)

Best,

Doug

Hi,

I've got a new almost-up install with a weird happening -- only the OPAC or
Staff client is available.

I've split the two to be on different ports, 80 and 8080.  Both
library.kohaesfl.org<http://library.kohaesfl.org> and library-intra.kohaesfl.org<http://library-intra.kohaesfl.org> will go to whichever
site is currently set to port 80.  (ie, right now, the OPAC is on 80 and
they both go to the OPAC.  If I flip the ports in
/etc/apache2/sites-available/library.conf and /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf so
that the intranet is on port 80, both URLs will give the staff side).

Both subdomains have valid DNS entries pointing them to the right server;
both will work if accessed via IP:port; both 80 and 8080 are being
"Listen"ed to in /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Has anybody seen this or does anybody have any ideas on what to try?

Thanks,
Kelsey Lied
