Cannot access ISPConfig on browser after install

[alinabq]

Hi,

I am a newbie, just installed the latest Ubuntu Server files on my Ubuntu Desktop using the "Perfect Setup" instructions, seemed fine, then installed ISPConfig and all seemed fine. But when I try to access the ISPConfig through my Firefox browser with my address (www.xyz.us:81), it cannot load the page. This computer is connected through a router which is being used by several other computers. Thanks in advance for any help!

If you are using windows, add www.xyz.us to your hosts file!
The hosts file is in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc

You WILL need to use the WAN's ip of the ISPconfig server.
Lets say it's 10.0.0.244

The hosts file should look like this:


10.0.0.244 www.xyz.us


Make sure you close and open your browser again to make it read the hosts file.


** edit **

Just re-reading your message again.. I now see that the problem is on the SAME system as the server.. I have no clue how to fix this, but it might be the same problem.

That was the problem, needed to add it to my /etc/hosts file in Ubuntu. Thanks a lot!
