Most recent issue.
I've setup everything correctly for the most part. I have the ip for my server listed as the ip under webserver.ini and server.ini. My database is setup correctly and I have all of the urls, loader ip, dcr, vars, txt links all updated in the database under my server ip (YES I will be changing to a live URL later on). I also have the URLs changed in the External Variables file pointing to the right address. Ports are all left alone and are pretty much default.
The server loads up on a local environment with the linux vps ip address, when I try to load the client off the VPS on my personal laptop the client stops at the last 10% of the loading bar and crashes. I've opened the inspector on the client to make sure all of my URL paths were correct and honestly I'm stumped.
If anyone can offer suggestions to what I might have overlooked that would be great. Thanks in advance!
(Screenshot is from my personal computer, not the VPS) Blocked out the title bar because I really don't want a bunch of randoms knowing my server ip. Sorry.

EDIT: I've checked all of my paths and they are correct. I've double checked my ports. I have open ports for the server through my firewall on linux. I've checked the .htaccess file.
Anything off my server refuses to connect to the client. Paths in the settings>sql file are all correct. Like I said it will load for the most part then throw an error.
EDIT 2:
My intuition was correct and I did have everything setup correctly on the servers end. However I completely forgot to check if my VPS provider had their own secondary firewall implications. It was literally in my face the entire time and I didn't even check it. I have the host firewall settings setup correctly, ports are open now and the server is running awesome. I just need to point my url to the server and figure out a client solution.
(LEARN FROM MY ISSUES DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING! Make sure your host doesn't have it's own firewall, if it does you need to open up the ports through there as well.)
