Confluence not listening on port 8090

[glendale ramirez]

I installed it thru server rhel 7 without desktop. No issue on the terminal but when checking to browser, it says the site can't be reached

Have you configured a reverse proxy? What about Selinux to open up that port?

This a case where testing via a desktop on the server could tell you if it is at least working locally.

Hi @glendale ramirez, Welcome to the community.

Seems there might be an issue during startup, please verify does the Confluence started successfully or not. Please have a look at the confluence logs and let us know.

Thanks,
Ram.

Hello. Thanks for your answer. This is now ok. As our security team has blocked some other ports, we redirect port 80 to 8090 to make it work.

8090 - messaging

This site is a good reference for port assignments and yes believe that networking can flip a switch on/off for listening.

TCP/UDP Ports - Information on Ports & Well Known Port Numbers

Port 8090 for HTTP or Port 8080 alternative for 80 - YES networking could solve this one

Another good reference site
