RE: i've seen this asked but not answered [UGH!]

The error message I'm receiving when trying to connect to:
https://10.142.53.10:8443/webtools/control/main

"Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 10.142.53.10:8443"

From my laptop (windows xp, ip=10.142.53.102) I can tracert and ping
10.142.53.10 (rhel4 w/ofbiz Release4.0 version:592149 running and accessible
via 127.0.0.1)

The router is linksys: 10.142.53.1

In the router firewall settings I have port forwarding enabled for https
port range 8443~8443, ip address 10.142.53.10, protocol TCP.

I did try setting https to "N" in the url.properties file(as one post
suggested), restarting the ofbiz server and changing my firewall settings to
enable http port 8080, I get the same results.

"Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 10.142.53.10:8080"

Any other ideas on what might be causing the problem? I need this up and
running by tomorrow.

Many TIA, Case

You dont need to make any of these changes you are making to the Ofbiz
setup. Put them all back the way they were originally setup. There are no
problems there (at least in the area you are concerned with).

Then, assuming the machine running ofbiz is on 10.142.53.10 and you are on
10.142.53.11, you should be able to connect just fine with the address you
have below.

If you are on a different subnet, be sure you have access to the subnet the
ofbiz server is on.

You can do this:

ping 10.142.53.10

or

tracert 10.142.53.10 (Windows)
traceroute 10.142.53.10 (linux)

Assuming the machine sitting at 10.142.53.10 is named Ofbizserver, you
should also be able to:

ping Ofbizserver (on a LAN)

or

ping Ofbizserver.domain.com (on the internet). (eg. ping www.yahoo.com)

so long as there is a DNS somewhere that knows about it.

If you can't ping it, you can't connect. You may need to specify a gateway
from the machine you are trying to connect from to the machine you are
trying to connect to.

Jonathan,

Thanks for your quick reply.

Are you saying I don't need to make any changes in any files, anywhere?

I've tried just typing in the machines WAN and LAN IP address in the
browser, for instance, https://10.142.53.10:8443/webtools/control/main

The process times out when trying to connect to the WAN IP address
And
The connection is refused when attempting to connect to the LAN IP address.

I've also tried changing the 127.0.0.1 to the new ip in ofbiz_containers.xml
file.

So, I'm thinking I need to makes some changes to various files.

Thanks again, Case

Case,

As long as your OFBiz is deployed on the server you want to access, you can
access OFBiz via any
names that server has.

It can be 127.0.0.1 (if you're accessing from the OFBiz server itself), or
whatever IP addresses
the OFBiz computer has. Or even any domain names assigned to that machine.

Your question becomes more complex if you want to PREVENT users from using
all names to the server
except for one. Say you just want users to access OFBiz via
http://public.site.ofbiz:8443/webtools .

Note that you can use some "<host>" element (IIRC) to do virtual hosts.

Re: i've seen this asked but not answered [UGH!]

first I am running ofbiz on same type of box
but I left the addresses as 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1
if you have access to the box thru a local keyboard and monitor see if
you can see ofbiz.
then check your hostnames in the hosts (/etc/hosts)

127.0.0.1 localhost (yourhostname) localhost.localdomain
or
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

if you decide to turn it back on put this in and make sure it is before

RE: Hacked!!! - disaster recovery options

In reply to this post by skip@theDevers-2

Hi Skip

I am sure there is something out there that will copy or backup website
regularly ... as for me I simply backup everyday manually but will be
looking for auto backup when ofbiz is implemented

Cheers

Well Brendan, much as I love MS for desktops, there ain't no way I am
running on a Windows hosted server. I want Apache HTTP and Tomcat support.
webhost4life.com does not seem to have it.

Just change your hosts to something like webhost4life.com

Ya, it was the weirdest thing. At 8pm pst, all was well. At 8:15. I could
no longer get email on [hidden email]. At 8:20 I tried logging into my
hosting account and the password would not work. At 8:30 I finally got
customer service, and in that time, the person had transfered all three
domain names I had pointed to that hosting account to a different registrar
in a different name.

Godaddy would do absolutely nothing to get the domain back even though the
thief was another of their customers (although it is somewhat
understandable).

My only option is to sue them and it just doesnt seem worth 2 - 10k for a
vanity domain name for legal fees.

So, I just make a new one and get on with life.

But, I am keeping [hidden email] for a while as a humility reminder.

Geeeesh how did that happen?? Who hosts your account?? It's so unnecessary

Hmmm

Well folks, my hosting account just got hacked and I somehow lost
thedevers.org
domain. The guy also wiped out [hidden email] email account (but left
the rest) as well, so instead of
replacing it, I took the name [hidden email] just to remind me not to
have the same password for too long.

At anyrate, the emails you get from stupid are me.
