Finally got Joomla (1.012) installed from the tarball and it works great when accessed locally. Remotely is another thing altogether.
Installed to an Ibay called "joomla" with the following setup.
SME Server 7.1.2 in Server Only Mode behind a router.
- Name:
joomla- Description:
joomla- Group:
trusted_users- User access via file sharing or user ftp:
Write=group, Read=everyone- Public access via web or anonymous ftp:
Entire Internet No password required *** Not sure this setting is good ***
- Execution of dynamic content (CGI, PHP, SSI):
EnabledWhen trying to access the site remotely "
http://www.mysite.ca/joomla" the browser times out. I can get a connection only when using "https" and even then no graphics are displayed and the content is formatted incorrectly. I have tried this with IE, Firefox & Opera with the same results.
I have a router and have port forwarded ports 80,8080 & 443 to the server on the internal network.
I would really like some insight as to what may be going wrong with my setup. Seeing as I can access Joomla properly from withing my network I would guess it's a port forwarding issue but at this point I can't be sure.
Here is my configuration.php file.
