Did you not start the server as I suggested with the host being something else, like 104.155.16.89? You cannot rely on 127.0.0.1 working instead: both addresses may be configured to refer to the same (virtual) machine, but they do not mean the same thing. And 104.155.16.89 does not magically map to 127.0.0.1 when traffic arrives at (and enters) the virtual machine. Starting something that listens on 127.0.0.1 means that it will only respond to things using that address, and of course that address is not reachable from outside. You have to use an externally-accessible address or you won't solve this problem. You can quite probably test an externally-accessible address inside the virtual machine just to make sure that your problem isn't one related to routing. So, I advise specifying 104.155.16.89 as the host when starting moin and then using lynx (or whatever) inside the virtual machine with that address (and whichever port you have chosen) in the URL. Then, if this succeeds, you can try again from outside the virtual machine. > I've tried - from inside the VM - the following command, that, I think, > explain the following: > - the VM, answer to a ping with the external addr > - does not answer neither at port 8081 nor port 8080. > > Could it be a prob of web server? Ping doesn't take arguments like this (because it operates at a different level than one dealing with ports)... > ping 104.155.16.89:8081 > ping: unknown host 104.155.16.89:8081 You might try something like "telnet 104.155.16.89 8081" and see if it connects. But again, your server needs to listen on that external address for the service to be reachable.
