Linux over Hyper-V initial setup

[kedomingo]

Hello,

How did everyone else set up their Linux over Windows Hyper-V initially? I am having a problem seeing the IP address with my browser. I have Apache httpd web server already up and I tried it locally. I opened up the Links command line browser and tried going to http://127.0.0.1 and I am seeing the default apache web page.

I can ping my server IP and I can ssh to it. But when I tried putting my server IP in my browser, the page does not load.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Kyle

This sounds like an apache setup issue to me, is it setup to listen on an IP other than localhost?

I tried configuring it to listen on port 80 generally, and later on, to a specific IP address. Nothing worked.

But nevermind. I filed a ticket and it was already resolved. I do not know what solved the issue though. I think CentOS was reinstalled because the packages that I had installed earlier (mysql, imagemagick, etc) were gone. But it’s ok. I already reinstalled them and the system is still working fine.

Thank you.

I don’t think centos was re-installed in that short of period of time, as it takes longer than that to install, I think however that RPM package was removed then reinstalled.

Glad it is fixed.
