Unable to access Lets-Chat #686

Closed spantula closed 8 years ago

spantula commented 8 years ago

Hello, I have installed Lets-Chat on localhost and can access it via http://localhost:5000. How do I access this url from other systems for example if the IP of my local system is 192.168.234.59 can I access it like this

http://192.168.234.59:5000

At the moment when I try this I get web page not found.

Any ideas?

You'll need to change the host in your settings file:

Setting it to 192.168.234.59 should bind to that address.
