Can you access OpenKM without apache.

say
ip address of server:8080/OpenKM

assuming the OpenKM port is 8080.

Hi Kumar,

Can you post the following files (again);

1. openkm.conf
2. hosts file (in your server and client)
3. apache2.conf
4. snapshot of files under /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

and again can you confirm the following;
1. you are starting openkm with

Code: Select all

run.sh -b 0.0.0.0

2. you can access OpenKM on server via --> http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/
3. you can access OpenKM on a client via --> http://ip of your server:8080/OpenKM/
3. you can access apache default site on server via --> http://localhost/
4. you can access apache default site on a client via --> http://ip of your server/

[Kumar]

Thanks for your effort keeping in my task.

Here I am attaching host,openkm.conf and apache2.conf files. Please look into these.

Just for confirmation

1. I am starting JBoss Server with run.sh -b 0.0.0.0 command
2. I am able to access my OpenKM from this http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/
3. I am able to access apache default site on server via --> http://localhost/
4. I am able to access apache default site on a client via --> http://ip of my server/

The following information was in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/openkm.conf file

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName openkm.your-domain.com
    RedirectMatch ^/$ /OpenKM
    <Location /OpenKM>
        ProxyPass ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/OpenKM
        ProxyPassReverse http://openkm.your-domain.com/OpenKM
    </Location>
    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/your-domain.com-error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/apache2/your-domain.com-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

and this was 000-default file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

change your host file as follows:
On server:
127.0.0.1 openkm.your-domain.com

On client
ip of the server openkm.your-domain.com

if the above is not working you can also check by changing <Virtualhost *:80> to <Virtualhost *>

cheers,

[Kumar]

Thanks its working fine from client system, Now iam able to access my OpenKM from clients system, http://openkm.your-domain.com/OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp

But on server system I am unable to browse http://openkm.your-domain.com/OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp.

How can I solve to access url http://openkm.your-domain.com/OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp in same server system.

[okmuser]

Have you changed your host file as per my post above on the server?

[Kumar]

Ya after that only i am able to access http://openkm.your-domain.com/OpenKM/frontend/index.jsp from client system.

Now when I try from server system Im unable to access that

[okmuser]

I will make it a little clear to make it absolutely sure;

lets assume:
1. your server ip 10.0.0.100
2. your client ip 10.0.0.2

Scenario 1: accessing the server from client using domain name:
if you configure the server to serve the website "test.myserver.com" you have to tell the client that when you type "test.myserver.com' in the address bar on your browser it should go to 10.0.0.100, this is done by the host file reside on the client, not on the server.

Scenario 2: accessing the server from server using domain name:
In this case you have to tell the server (or the browser in your server) to go to localhost or 127.0.0.1 when you type "test.myserver.com" in the server browser, in this case this is done by the hosts file in the server.

So iw ould suggest you to check again the /etc/hosts file on the server.

localhost openkm.your-domain.com
or
127.0.0.1 openkm.your-domain.com

check the spelling too, a common mistake which happens.

[Kumar]

Thanks alot,

Finally I got thanks.

[Kumar]

The main problem is to add 127.0.0.1 openkm.your-domain.com in etc/host file of Server machine.

The users who are following the article http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Apache they have to add 127.0.0.1 openkm.your-domain.com in etc/host file.
