Can you send me the results of the ifconfig on the VM's host?

Reviewing I noticed. from below

"virbr0    is on 192.168.122.1" which is the wrong octal. it should be 192.168.1.XXX.  It may be there because your VM is setting up its own DHCP. But that begs the question of how you are reaching the 192.168.1.188 apache interface on the VM.

If you ssh into the VM and issue an ifconfig there, what is its IP address?

Have you tried temporarily turning off SELinux  ("setenforce 0"), then trying to connect? After doing the test, turn SELinux back on with "setenforce 1".

Thanks

Just tried that on the host OS with no change.

The debian VM doesn't have SElinux installed, as 'getenforce' and 'sestatus' return command not found.

Running "brctl show" w/o/ the quotes on the VM's host will show you the bridge and the interfaces that are connected to it. 'ifconfig" w/o the quotes on the VM's host will show you the all of interfaces.

brctl show

virbr0                  8000:525400da324e      yes                  virbr0-nic

virbr0    is on 192.168.122.1

(sorry can't ssh in at the moment, let me know if you need all the details)

Might help chasing down the problem.

Hi,

Ok, so the debian install went simply. I used debian 9 (Stretch), without a GUI. 'ip addr' gives 192.168.1.101, which sounds right, as that's my lan, 192.168.1.X.

I then followed the instructions on https://apt.ledgersmb.org/index.html, but I installed version 1.5, and did not add the 'test component', I don't know what that means, sorry.

[snip]

 

I was able to add the DB admin user where the prompt comes up: Now do I need to reset/config mysql's root user and password also?

So from my desktop I tried to access via firefox 192.168.1.101:5762/setup.pl, but it's unable to connect.

Ok. Are you able to ping that ip address from your desktop? That should indicate if you should expect to be able to connect to the web server as well.

 

Yes, I can ping the debian VM with "ping 192.168.1.118"

I can access the default debian apache web server at 192.168.1.118, but no luck with 192.168.1.188:5762/setup.pl

I have a functioning fedora os VM on 192.168.1.107 with nextcloud working fine.

 

I have the VM network set to bridged, networking is my downfall, and the other thing I suspect is that I need to open the firewall for the webserver.

Bridged sounds fine. quick question: Is the "eth0" (or enpXs0 with X a number) network on the VM's host part of the bridge? If not, you probably need to enable IP forwarding. Before we go that route, lets start by checking you can 'ping' the address though. (And: can you ping the host that the VM is running on?)

I  can ping the host with "ping 192.168.1.109"

 

All advice appreciated.

Regards,
