I installed Moodle 1.9.2+ (20080827 date version) on my computer with Ubuntu Linux version 8.04 and ip address of 192.168.2.179. I am using Apache and MySQL.
Installation was error free and Moodle is working perfectly OK when accessed from the same computer, that is, when i access it as "http://localhost/lms/".
But, when I try to access same Moodle installation from another computer on the LAN having IP address of 192.168.2.180 with an url of "http://192.168.2.179/lms/" same Moodle application do not work.
Can anybody help me?
Manoj,
Sounds like you are lacking the basic knowledge for running a web server, the page Richard provided may help you if your Moodle Application is not rendering the theme. You have to be more descriptive about the error, you cannot just say "it doesnt work" You have to say WHAT doesnt work, does the page not render properly, do you get any error? What is the error?
To me it sounds like possibly two things:
1) Your firewall is blocking access to your machine on port 80
2) Your apache service is not listening on the appropriate Interface
1) Check that apache is listening on your computer
netstat -na | grep LISTEN | grep :80
You should see something like this:
tcp 0 0 your.ip.address.here:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
2) Check your firewall, an easy way to check your firewall is to telnet to your IP address on port 80. From a command prompt in windows XP
telnet your.ip.address.here 80
Then type:
GET /
And press "Enter"
You should see some html fly through your window, if not then chances are your firewall is blocking traffic on port 80 to your webserver
If you are going to administer a linux server I suggest you do alot more reading it will help.
