I am trying to deploy Django project on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS with
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
also tried
python manage.py runserver 192.168.0.103:8000
The server starts, however i cannot reach it on another machine(Windows 7) in the same LAN. I am thinking that LAN is working properly, because i use ssh to connect ubuntu server and working through it. The /etc/network/interfaces file:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
The ifconfig:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:17:31:e5:99:89
inet addr:192.168.0.103 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
I tried accessing 192.168.0.103:8000 in browser on Windows but nothing. What am i doing wrong?
If you can SSH in then most likely this means that your 8000 port is not open on the server, try this Ubuntu iptables guide
If your SSH works, then you can also use port forwarding through SSH
ssh user@server -L 8000:server:8000
This is the the ssh user@host -L localport:host:hostport
format
This will forward the 8000 port from your server, to your 8000 port locally, through the SSH tunnel, and in which case on your browser you'd use 127.0.0.1:8000
or localhost:8000
(as opposed to using the host/IP of the server)
