Is it possible to start my webserver/webrick/node.js at standard port 80 on Nitrous.io? A lot of company policies don't allow browsing of non-standard port website.
Can I have root access to my virtual machine?
Nitrous.IO currently has ports 1024 - 9999 open only for HTTP. Root access is not available at this time.
You can then access your site via that particular port, or directly on the usual http (port 80) and https ports (port 443).
Custom domain support will be available soon for paying users.
We recently shipped an update that will forward port 80 to port 3000. So you can run your web server on port 3000 and you will still be able to preview your application even if you are behind a company firewall.

I downloaded xampp and made it work(mysql, phpmyadmin) in internal network.
Now I want to make it accessed from external network ,But I want only the mysql server to be external accessed and phpmyadmin only internal.
How can I do it? port 80 / 8080 is already in use in router so I need to use another ports , does it matter?
You should be able to open up port 80 on your router. go to the port forwarding setting and make the external port 80 if you just want to type in your ip address when connecting to your computer. Otherwise, change the port to whatever you want and set the internal port to 80.
I am new to Google Cloud. Instance has been created with Ubuntu16.04 image on Compute Engine. Three applications has been installed on it. One is running on nginx on port 80 [say A], second is on 8001[say B] and other one is on 8080 [say C].
I can able to access application A directly when click on external IP [or if give port 80 along with IP]. This application internally access application B on port 8001. Configuration of two applications has been updated for. There is inbound firewall rule for 8001. This application can not be accessible when we try to access with IP and port.
Same case with application C. That application is running on port 8080 in tomcat. Inbound Firewall rule has been created for this port too. This application is not accessible with IP and port. Server.xml for this application is updated to 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost [as mentioned not able to access port(11444 & 5072 ) externally(using Ubuntu on Google compute Engine)
I am not sure about the issue. Can anyone help me out?
I searched around but did not find anything for multiple applications. And most of the time example has given for port 80 only.
This application internally access application B on port 8001
Same case with application C.
It sounds like you don't actually want 8001 or 8080 to be accessible; in this case, leave the firewall rules alone (don't permit traffic to them from the outside) and configure them to listen only on localhost (which is not firewalled anyway).
In case you do want these to be accessible, then post a screenshot of your firewall configuration and we'll take a look.
Hi I'm new to website development and I am trying to configure a number of websites from my home based server using Apache2 and Linux Mint.
I have setup three new websites in addition to the 000-default page.I have created the Virtual Host config files in sites-available and have added the sites to Host.conf. Internally(on the server in a browser) they are all working fine - I can access all four sites using localhost or the URLs I've configured them with -tested with and without the www. prefix and all seems fine. The four sites are just basic HTML scripts with different headers and different one line body.
I've added Listen 8090 to Listen 80 on my ports.conf file and have opened port 80 and 8090 on my firewall and have updated Port Forwarding on my router and tested they are open using PortCheckTool. The two ports are open and every other port is locked out so that seems good too.
I've tried to configure a GoDaddy domain name to direct activity to one of these sites. The domain name that works internally (on the server in a browser) is the same as my GoDaddy domain name I've bought. I've been into my GoDaddy account and pointed this domain at my external IP address (tried also adding port to forwarding 8090 as well as leaving port number as default). However when I access this domain from my mobile phone using 3G with WIFI turned off I just get sent to the 000-default homepage.Same using default Port 80 and with Port Forwarding to 8090. I have script for both 80 and 8090 in my site config files in sites-available directory.
So the connection is getting to the server, ports are OK, it's just that apache2 doesn't redirect the GoDaddy traffic but redirects fine locally on the server for the same site!?
Any ideas what I am missing?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
I would like to use a domain name to point to a web page on the local server's IP address. However, the problem is that the page is linked to an IP address set up on port 8088 rather than 80 because the latter is already used by another web page. By the domain company I was told that they cannot do it because the domain can only point to an IP address set up on port 80. So now I am in a deadlock. What alternatives do I have and how can I make a domain pointing to the IP:8088?
Thanks
The domain company that you talked to may have done a poor job of explaining how domains work. Domain names don't refer to specific ports. They just refer to IP addresses. The client can look up a hostname to get the IP address which the client should connect to, but the client has to figure out the port without the help of DNS. Port 80 is just the default port for HTTP service.
You can certainly run a web server on port 8088 if you like. The port number would have to appear in the URL, e.g. http://somehost.example.com:8080/some/page. Clients would parse this and know to connect to port 8080 instead of the default port 80.
If you don't want URLs to contain the port number, then requests are going to go to the default port 80, and you have no choice but to make the web server running on port 80 handle these requests. HTTP/1.1 requests include the hostname which the client wants to contact, and modern web server programs are normally capable of serving completely different sets of content based on the hostname in the request. There are few ways todo what you need:
Just configure the web server for port 80 to handle both sites. This will depend on what web server software you're using. Apache for example calls these "virtual hosts", and here is a set of examples. This is a typical solution, and some people run hundreds of sites on the same server this way.
Run your two web servers as you planned. Set up the server for port 80 to be a reverse proxy for the second website. The server would continue to serve content for the site it handles now. When it receives a request for the second site, it would relay the request to the server running on port 8088, and relay the server's response back to the client.
Move the existing server for port 80 to a different port. Run a pure reverse proxy server on port 80, relaying requests for both web sites to their respective web servers.
You might be better off taking further questions to https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/ or https://serverfault.com/.
You can use a Proxy to reroute the given domain to the IP:PORT. To accomplish this you could either spin up a Nginx server and configure it as your reverse proxy or use this project that does exactly what you want and with almost no config https://github.com/cristianoliveira/ergo
If you run Apache on port 80, which is the most common case then the easiest way to solve this issue is to set a VirtualHost that uses ProxyPass.
<VirtualHost sub.domain.com:80>
ProxyPass / https://ip-or-domain.com:8088/
</VirtualHost>
Hi I am completely new to phpMyAdmin and mySQL
Is there any way to configure remote management/access of my MySQL database by pointing requests or a browser to an IP? I have my server set up behind a router and have setup port forwarding for ports 8080 (tomcat) and 3306(should be default mySQL). Everything works locally on the machine, however I cannot access the dbs or phpmyadmin by pointing a browser from a computer on the local network to http://IP/phpmyadmin or from externally by pointing the browser to the IP given to me by my ISP. Any thoughts? Is there a specific way to edit the config files in order to allow the use of IP addresses?
Exposing your db and appserver on the internet is not a good idea. If these need to be accessed remotely, use a VPN or authenticated SSL. In the case of phpmyadmin - if this is running on a webserver on your network then you'll need to forward port 80 too - although I'd recommend using HTTPS/SSL (port 443)
