Can't access http page on Azure VM

I create an Ubuntu VM on Azure. By default in the inbound rules there was only the rule the maps from * to 22.

I changed the rule to 22 (changed the * to 22) and added a rule from 80 to 80.

Problem is - I can't access an HTTP server that's on the machine. I tried to run wget http://localhost and I got the correct index.html page. But, when I try to run it form outside, it doesn't work.

Solution

  • Set inbound 22 to and 80 to 80, also you can create outbound * to *. Don't forget to restart the VM, usually restarting will make it works
