Links pointing to localhost.

[Vinay Binny <vi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I installed the Roller app on my machine, it works great when I access it
from on my machine. But when I access it from a remote machine it fails, the
reason being the links on the webpages seem to be pointing to
http://localhost:8080/........ while the application is not hosted on
localhost but being accessed from a remote machine. Am I missing something
here? Is there a place where I can configure this to the machine's ip
address?

Thanks a lot,
Vinay.

Hi Dave & Henning,

That solved it, thanks.

I cannot believe that I missed that from the server admin page, I looked for
this setting more than a few times. Even while posting I was sure I was
missing something simple.

Thanks,
Vinay.

If you log in as global admin in the Roller admin
GUI, goto "Server administration" and put in the full
address of your machine under "Absolute URL
to site), then bounce the server, does that make
any difference?

Cheers,
Dave
