how do I view my meteor.js setup on ubuntu remotely? - meteor

I'm looking to test meteor.js on ubuntu remotely but my browser does not connct. the ip is good and so is the port.

This is probably not an issue with Meteor. I have Meteor working fine on EC2. Most likely it's an issue with the default AWS security groups blocking port 3000. You need to go in there and enable access to that port.

unable to ping/send http requests to RHEL tomcat server on Azure

Note - I am fully aware that there are lot of similar issues posted before, but I tried NSG settings, psping but nothing seem to work
All, I brought up a RHEL7.3 server on Azure and installed JDK1.8 and Tomcat8. After starting Tomcat, I tried an http request from my browser:
http://XX.yy.zz.abc:8080/ but I was unable to get the index page
I also created an inbound security rule to allow HTTP and also allow IP range from our company.
Even worse is, when I tried pinging to this IP from my desktop computer, I am unable to ping the same - it is timing out.
Please note that in the past, I've been able to bring up servers and be able to connect from desktops without any issues - in a similar azure-companynetwork setup.
Am I missing anything here?
Ok, so pings do not work, you shouldn't even try that. What you should check is the firewall on you RHEL VM and check you've allowed port 8080 on you NSG, also your VM should have a PublicIP attached
According to your description, you had better check as the following ways:
1.Please ensure you could access your web by using 127.0.0.1:8080 on your VM.
2.Check your service listening.
netstat -ant|grep 8080
Please ensure 8080 is listening on tcp not tcp6.
3.Open firewall port on RHEL.
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8080/tcp --permanent
More information about RHEL firewall please refer to this link.
4.Open port on Azure NSG.
NSG could be associated with NIC and subnet, you should check all of them.
All,
It looks like there is an input firewall inside of RHEL7.3 that is preventing connections. I just stopped it using
service firewalld stop
I am able to get the home page.

woocommerce webhooks not firing

woocommerce webhooks aren't firing at all for me, even on a fresh install. I did the following:
Create a new MySQL database
Install WP from the zip file.
Set up WP.
Install Woocommerce.
Enable REST API and create a key.
Added "Coupon created" webhook, made sure it's set to active, and set it to a publicly accessible site.
When I create a coupon, the webhook does not fire, and no entry is created in the log. I tried this with orders as well and also doesn't work.
I think it's a machine configuration problem, but not sure what to change. The machine is an EC2 instance and has all ports opened in its security group policy.
Weirdest of all is that on a different EC2 instance does work, but it's a production machine and I want to have a dev server work so I can test out things. The only config differences between the production and dev machines that I can think of are the subnets and the firewall, but I don't understand why the subnet should matter and I opened all the firewall ports on the dev machine.
what Linux distributions are you running for prod and dev?
CentOS with SELinux enabled with not allow HTTPD scripts and modules to connect to network by default.
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on
If above is not valid, please identify network problems by trying connecting to AWS RDS via SSH CLI. If you can open a connection via SSH CLI, the problem will be with your application. If you can't, it will be network problem. First thing to check in that case is AWS RDS security group. For testing you can open 3306 to public.
Let me know how it goes.

IP address for deployed Meteor app (meteor.com)?

I have a meteor app I've deployed to meteor.com. It's up and running fine meteor deploy myapp.meteor.com, however I need to adjust firewall rules so servers can see it.
Does it have a static IP, and if so how to get it?
ping yourappname.meteor.com
Note that the IP is not guaranteed to be static, so it might change from time to time.

Can't open site other than on the port 80

I installed on my server, a Bug tracker which is accessible through port 3000 (http://myserver:3000).
Every thing is ok on my server, i can access to my web application any time, but in my job's computer, i cannot even connect to this application and no other web application which run on different port other than 80.
I have added a role on the windows Firewall settings by letting connection to and from port 3000. But same result.
If some one have a solution to this, i'll be thankful.
Best Regards
Is it possible that your work network is blocking your home machine. Can you ping your home machine or access it with its ip address? When you type
http://myserver:3000
are you doing this from the local intranet? If you have your bug server on your home machine then you won't be able to access
http://myserver:3000
from your work machine without a fully qualified domain nae or ip address?
If the above answers are all resolved then whenever I have such difficulties on windows, I do the following. If you don't have admin rights you might not be able to do this.
temporarily disable all firewall/antivirus programs.
Start web server listening on port 80 (on your home machine)
Access from a different machine if this works then
Start web server on 3000
Access from a different machine.
If it works then it is a matter of finding whether the problem was that the web request was being blocked by the firewall or antivirus. In your case it appears it might be the antivirus. To confirm disable all antivirus for a moment.
Make sure you turn your antivirus/firewall back on once the problem is diagnosed!

Accessing asp. net development server external to VM

Guys, been knocking my head against the desk (instead of the mac) for hours. I'm running VS 2008 in a parallels VM. I can access the development server in the VM if local host is used, if I use the designated ip for the VM or try to access it externally it does not work. All firewalls are off and I verified that I can access iis externally.
Any Ideas what could be wrong?
I ran into this same problem and am using a TCP tunnel to bypass it. Download this Java app & just tunnel the traffic back. No messing with IIS necessary!
http://jcbserver.uwaterloo.ca/cs436/software/tgui/tcpTunnelGUI.shtml
In command prompt, you'd then run the java app like this... Let's assume you want external access on port 80 and your standard debug environment runs on port 1088...
java -jar tunnel.jar 80 localhost 1088
Yes, it is by design. Consider using IIS instead.
The first answer is that you can't do it because the development server is specifically made to just run locally, otherwise it becomes a security risk.
The second answer is that you can get around anything, this hints that there is a way to do it using a reverse-proxy (but the post he links to seems to be dead)
EDIT : After viewing RichardOD's answer, I fear that my answer below is wrong and you can not access it using IP.
But I suggest you to go with deploying it to IIS.
The VS2008 internal web server ( which I guess is cassini ) creates a port for your app and runs a web server for your app on that port. If you want to access it from outside the machine you have to use that port in addition to IP.
