I have recently installed the latest Apache.

It is working fine through localhost:80 and through 10.0.0.51:80, but I can't connect through [External IP]:80.

I have forwarded ports correctly, but I don't know if it has something to do with the httpd.conf file.

So here is a link to my httpd.conf file.

  1. Ensure that your apache is listening on every address:

    • get this in your conf:

      Listen 0.0.0.0:80

    • check it from console:

      $ netstat -luntp | grep :80

    • I would change ServerName to the IP (I'm not an expert, but I think it gives better results with external IPs):

      ServerName localhost:80

  2. Then, visit the internal ip of the server 10.0.0.51:80 and ensure it's showing ok.

  3. Now, ensure that you are redirecting the ports correctly, and check it visiting your external IP address outside your network (with a phone, o similar, so your router/firewall doesn't get in the way out) and

    • if the browser says connection interrupted, it's probably a firewall issue
    • if the browser is waiting too long, could be a firewall issue, or something in your apache configuration.
