[SOLVED] How to make a Skylark app accessible from outside? [message #40140]

I can run on localhost just fine. But when I try to load from to the external IP address it doesn't work.

I tried opening ports on my router, but it doesn't work.

So it must be something in Skylark.

Ideas?

Hi lectus,

I have no problems with this and I'm using Skylark apps in several different setups...

On what platform are you trying it? And what is your configuration? Have you checked if the app listens on all addresses or just on localhost?

Best regards,
Honza

I don't know if it's a problem with Skylark or with my router configuration. Embarassed

Hopefully you can help me.

1) I have an ADSL modem as bridge and a WIFI router doing the PPPoE. On the WIFI router I used port forwarding for my PC to open all ports.
Do I need to open it on the bridged ASDL modem too?

2) With Skylark I just create a default Skylark project (no database) and executed it on port 8001. Do I have to change something to make it listen for all machines instead of just localhost?

I'm using Windows 7.

Thanks

Hi!
I solved the problem!

I had to set on Windows to use static IP instead of DHCP.

On the router I had DCHP, I also disabled it.

Lastly I double checked the ports were correctly forwarded in the router to the local IP of the PC.

It now works. It was not a problem with Skylark. Apache also runs now.

So, if anyone else is having this problem remember to open the ports in the router and use static IP on BOTH Windows and the router.

In default configuration it should listen on all interfaces, unless you specify "ip" in configuration file or in the app itself.

Concerning DHCP vs.static ip: I see no reason why that should make any difference Smile

Open ports are of course necessary.

Anyway, I'm glad you got it to work.
