Access Openboxes from IP Address

troubleshooting
1

So I believe I followed the setup directions to a T, at: Overview - OpenBoxes

I am installing on a DigitalOcean Droplet PC with recommended specs.

I believe that Tomcat has finished deploying:
2022-07-20 15:23:54,552 [DefaultPluginScheduler_Worker-3] INFO jobs.RefreshProductAvailabilityJob - Finished refreshing product availability data in 2589 ms

This is my last line in the catalina log…

But when I go to access the app at the IP address, I just get the Apache2 Ubuntu Default Page…

I am not sure if I was supposed to do anything else with the Apache2 install, I did try to access the additional links but got a 404 error at: https://docs.openboxes.com/configuration/ajp

Any ideas? I would experiment but so far whenever I’ve done that I end up screwing things up more lol!

For now, you can get to the application via the default Tomcat port 8080.

http://ipaddress:8080/openboxes

I am not sure if I was supposed to do anything else with the Apache2 install, I did try to access the additional links but got a 404 error at: https://docs.openboxes.com/configuration/ajp

Try this link. Some of the docs render the URL incorrectly.

If you want a secure connection or you want to use a domain name (and not the IP address) then following these docs as well.

Thanks again, I’ve finally got access and can play around a bit.
