[mapguide-users] Apache on local computer only

[Andy Morsell]

It may be a VMWare bridged network issue.  I had something similar happen
recently with MGOS on XP on VMWare.  I'm not sure what fixed it, since it
started working again at some point without me changing any settings in
Windows or firewalls.

The problem screams firewall or router issues, but the packets get through
to the MGOS server.

 

Also there's no firewall running on the MGOS server. So machines in the LAN
should connectk. I do have a firewall between the LAN and the internet, but
according to TCPdump it's correctly forwarding outside requests to the right
port.

 

Earlier I had tried switching Mapguide to port 80 instead of 8008, in case
something was blocking non-standard ports. But that didn't help either. But
seeing that the packets are at least getting to the Ethernet adaptor, it
seems the problem is somewhere between the adaptor and Apache. However, the
adaptor seems to send port 22 traffic to sshd just fine.

Firewall?

This one has me just stumped.

 

I just installed MGOS 1.2.0 on Fedora Core 6 running in VMWare. I can access
the Apache welcome page and the MapAdmin login  page, but only from the FC6
server. They show up using either localhost, 127.0.0.1, or the server's LAN
IP address. However, I can't reach any pages from any other machine, whether
I try from the LAN or from the outside.

 

The VMWare host is using bridged networking and has its own IP address. It
responds to pings and I can shh into the server.

 

Httpd.conf says:

 

LISTEN 8008

 

If I run netstat, I can see that httpd is listening on port 8008.

 

If I run tcpdump and listen for anything on port 8008, I can see the
requests come in from other machines. So it does not appear to be some sort
of firewall issue. So I know the requests are getting to the machine, just
for some reason Apache seems to be ignoring them.

 

FC6 runs SELinux, so I tried disabling that but I still cannot access
anything.

 

Any ideas?
