Hi, I'm having issues accessing my magento appliance via a web browser. When I try to type in the IP address assigned by my home dhcp server, it just forwards to whatever the domain setup was, shop.example.com
I just want to test with the http://ipaddress/
What do I need to do?
Forum:
You can reset the domain/url
You just need to re-run the first boot script. From the commandline:
I think that you should be able to use an IP address rather than a FQDN.
Another way (or if it won't let you set an IP) is to leave the appliance as-is and just add an entry to your local machine hosts file (ie the machine with the web-browser you are trying to use). To do that I suggest you google your specific OS and you should find easy instructions on that. Basically you will just need to point the FQDN to the IP.
setting the ip in the script
setting the ip in the script worked. Thanks.
No worries
Glad to hear it worked, and good to know for sure for future reference. Thanks for posting back.
