if you dont use vbox you should be using VMWare right?
f you dont use Winscp how do u put the root.iso in the data base?

So. I set up the server on some virtualization software (I use VBox but I believe VMware player is easier to use, just the free version is super annoying), and it worked fine. Played around with the server and the settings, fantastic. Can configure it through lan, no problems there.
Then I set it up on a dedicated server. access to your (343's) account management pages is fine. I can initialize the server through putty, ok. But I can not access pwAdmin.
I have opened port 8443 in UFW but it hasn't helpped.
I dont mind not being able to use phpmyadmin, I can access the database through putty, but I need pwadmin access :/
If you could give me some pointers? (Chrome wont even tell me the error. It merely says it could not connect to IP:8443/pwAdmin)
Many thanks
Falney
Edit:
On a side note. It seem's to be a great server from what I have seen and it has been a fantastic introduction to setting up PWservers. Thank's :>
can u show me ur interfaces?
One way of doing it is to download Daemon tools or some other program that allows you to mount .iso files, mount it then in linux typeQuote:

As for my interfaces? It wont do you any good. The chance we have the same IP/hardware is unlikely.
yes I know I dont want to copy ur ips, but I want to see somthing in the netmask ..

I would really appreciate it if u add me and help me. [I REALLY LIKE TO TEST THIS RELEASE Bro SO PLEASE HELP ME.........
thanks in advance.
This sounds like the long way around. You shouldn't have to mount the ISO within your host OS to be able to mount it within your guest OS. You should be able to directly mount it to the guest OS using the VM software. At least I know this is the case with VMware, again can't say anything about VBOX as I do not use it (and never have, only tried it once to see that I thought it sucked compared to VMware!).Quote:

(as above) Directly mount it to the guest OS as an optical disc (and you're "putting it in" the VM, not any "data base")Quote:

(Also ofc make sure you've installed ia32-libs if using x64) Pulling it apart and being redundant is the only way you or anyone else will find the problem :wink: :):
if you're sitting at a home computer, on a home network, your netmask is most likely 255.255.255.0 (MAYBE 255.255.0.0 depending on the router, but I doubt it)...Quote:

Well how should I do that? when I write the
mount /dev/cdrom/ /cdrom
it says block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected , mounting read-only
so what to do there?
---------------------
what VMware do u use in the vedio?
I mean workstation or VMWare server or what?
I have never managed to mount an ISO natively while using vbox without first manually setting up a drive in ubuntu on any version of ubuntu. I mentioned the method because he was talking about using vbox and that was the easy way of doing it. I couldn't get vBox to register server_root.iso as a ligit iso. It kept throwing a tantrum so I added a virtual drive to ubuntu and uploaded the iso to the server when I was doing initial tests on a cheap vps.Quote:

Before you say to change to VMWare. I use vBox because I like the VBoxManage CMD program and I think VMWare took the network manager out of the free player they have.
given that it is a CDROM, this is pretty natural. I believe it did this on the tutorial video.Quote:

Many hours and much headache later... It is fixed and working. I am considering pulling it apart and setting it up manually for the production server though. Despite the problems I have had though, I really love this release. Thanks again.
EDIT:: For Taildfox
When it says that is is "mounting read-only" type in
cd /cdrom/
then?
I typed that and now root@perfectworld:/cdrom#
then I type cp -R * /
what next?

add me on skype please...

question, is there any specific reason i can't use a later version of ubuntu such as 12.04.2 LTS ?
Can someone edit me on skype and help me please with this release?
skypename:john.jakson7
If you can get it to work on anything later than that, go for it. I managed to get it working on a vbox with 12.10 but it limpped and it was hard. I couldn't get PW Admin to work properly either.Quote:

I did not want to go through it all over again with the test server then again on the production server so I decided to just downgrade to the version you can download on the original post. It save's a lot of hassle and most companies will install it on dedicated servers on request.
nice release.
Major update coming :wink:
Still don't have an exact date, but I assure you it's coming :wink:
Do you have a list of updates are you doing? If not, not to worry.Quote:
