• Mystic & The Web Server

    From KrUpTiOn@21:2/105 to All on Wednesday, September 26, 2018 15:38:32
    All,

    I sorta fixed the web server, but it only shows if I do it on a web browser locally, it times out and says 'page not found' if done remotely, it doesn't work. the telnet side works.

    Trying to help a buddy set up his Mystic BBS. It's under Windows 7 Pro 64/bit.

    I opened up the http port (and a few more) in the router (port forwarding
    too) I am pretty sure I told the firewall to open the port too (http port
    888) I set up Syncrhonet for him (telnet:2323) (http:80) and those work fine.

    I've been using Linux for awhile, I haven't used Windows since XP on any of
    my machines so I'm a lil rusty on the current Windows too.

    Any idea what the problem could be?

    Thanks!

    Maybe set up the system as well as the firewall to point to port 8080

    I opened up the http port (and a few more) in the router (port
    forwarding too) I am pretty sure I told the firewall to open the port

    You will have to authorize the mis.exe program in the Mystic home folder for Pvt/Pub access by the firewall. I've never used a port in there ...

    Port forwarding and firewalls are the usual suspects but some ISPs block port 80 and a few others so that might be it as well.

    I run my web server on port 8080 for that reason.
