Can't access web based config #48

Closed karibuTW closed 10 years ago

karibuTW commented 10 years ago

Hi there, I've installed Magpie on my Debian VM using the doc, (I got python, pip, git and libmagic-dev ) I've simply done sudo pip install magpie + create git repo (No issue) + sudo magpie and I don't see any error when I start magpie. However if I access the IP of my VM:8080, I just got an "Unable to connect" type of error.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thank you!

Hello @karibuTW

Welcome in Magpie's family! So, you're problem is probably coming from your web.cfg file. So open it, and change the address='localhost' line by 0.0.0.0. It should do the trick.

Hi Erwyn, thanks for your reply,

Not quite sure where is web.cfg, do you know?

Thank you!

EDIT: Okay found it! (Thanks find command) /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/magpie/config/web.cfg

EDIT2: Bingo! It works! Thanks Erwyn

EDIT3: My small contribution, a short article on Magpie with installation steps http://freedif.org/magpie-python-based-replacement-of-evernote/ Thanks for this software!

@charlesthomas I think you can close the issue.
