Hosting a Website

Postby jtmcgrathiii » Thu Jun 02, 2011 6:29 pm

Hi
I recently installed Amahi and love everything so far. The only problem that I have run into is that I cannot access my hda from outside the network. I have installed wordpress and followed the wiki to the letter and edited the .conf . I also have set my router to forward http port 80 to my hda. Every time I try to access it outside the network though I receive a message that says that the Internet Server is unresponsive or is down. (Even when I know it is not)

Please Help!!!

Two possible issues:

- it did not get forwarded properly ... there is some silly setting like the IP or the port range or whatever, not quite right
- your ISP blocks everyone from accessing port 80. try port 443 and ssl? (not entirely trivial to set up)
