port - Can't access YouTrack, unless using Firefox
2014-04
Problem
I cannot access JetBrains YouTrack using Chrome or Internet Explorer, but I can access it using Firefox.
Background and troubleshooting that has already been performed
- It is running on an Amazon EC2 instance.
- I have hosted it on port 82.
- I have TeamCity hosted on port 81 and that is working perfectly in any browser, from anywhere
- I have opened up those ports in the Windows Firewall, as well as in the EC2 security group manager.
- The same problem occurs whether I access the site:
- using the public IP address from my laptop
- using the public IP address while logged into the EC2 instance
- using localhost on the EC2 instance.
- The problem does not occur, i.e. everything works fine, if I try either of the three steps above using Firefox.
- I'm pretty sure it was working in Chrome, but now I'm doubting myself.
- Probably irrelevant: I recently had to stop and start the EC2 instance due to an underlying hardware error, so that it could be migrated to new infrastructure.
- I've checked the network settings in IE and Firefox on my local machine, and they're both set up with default settings.
Question
What's with that?
There's a configuration problem that is redirecting to /login with a malformed ip address, so the 302 redirect request was failing.
I must have just been logged in on firefox, so no redirection was taking place.
I have launched an instance of EC2. Initially the security group I created did not have the port 80 open. I sshed and installed Apache etc, and now want to open port 80. I am using elasticfox.
So I
- go to Security Group - > [My Group name] - > Grant new permission
- Open up the port 80(Http with TCP) for network range 0.0.0.0/0
Now my assumption is that these ports should be opened up on the instance, but the instance is not responding on the allocated IPs, public DNS entry. What should I do next?
If you're using a windows instance, then you also need to open the port on that instance's individual firewall.
