How to access http://localhost:8090 from external

[apopovic77]

Hi,

i installed confluence on my linux via ssh. Now i can connect via http://localhost:8090/?!? How to do that from external?

Thank you for help.

Hello Alexander, how are you doing?

localhost points to the local address of your server, so if you'd like to access it externally, simply use the IP address of your Linux.

e.g. http://192.168.0.15:8090/

• Use the command ifconfig to find out the IP address of your machine.

Hope that helps!

Hi, Thx for your help. i understand it should work with the ip.

First i tried it with my FQDN, i didnt think about the ip. now i realise, that my problem lies somewhere else.

cat /opt/atlassian/confluence/logs/catalina.out

Hi Alex

either you have to less memory in your box to satisfy the needs of Confluence or your heap  config needs to be adjusted.

Hi Kurt,

i installed it on a linode.com host which only has 1 GB RAM. I know saw that the minimum requirements for confluence is 6 GB.

I guess i need a different server.

Thx Alexander

Jepp, looks like

Let me know how it goes as soon as you have a larger server available

Hi Alex,

check https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/forcing-confluence-to-bind-a-specific-interface-237569002.html for more details.

Another option if you would stick to use localhost, would be to run an nginx as reverse proxy in front of your instance

ip address:8090  should work.
