Dear all,

I tried to install OpenProject on my Ubuntu 16.04 box using distributed package and installer. 

After installation & configuration I am not able to see the OpenProject at http://localhost nor at http://localhost/openproject (if I set a /openproject path in the configuration). In the first case I see the default apache page. In the second case I get a "The requested URL /openproject/ was not found on this server." error. Could you help me to understand how to make it work? 

Here is what I am doing:

- Install OpenProject (sudo apt-get install openproject). Version 8.1 is installed

- Configure with $ sudo openproject configure

Here I set the default options, that is installing apache2, mysql, no ssl. If needed I can attach the configuration outputs.

- Check installation with $ sudo openproject run check

[ok] MySQL configuration is working
[ok] Web server is running
[ok] openproject server is running
[ok] openproject background job worker is running
sending test email using sendmail...

[ok] test email sent to XXX

-Check services are running with $ sudo service openproject status

These are my configuration files

/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 xenialbox

/etc/apache2/sites-available/openproject.conf

Include /etc/openproject/addons/apache2/includes/server/*.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerName 127.0.0.1
 DocumentRoot /opt/openproject/public

 ProxyRequests off

 Include /etc/openproject/addons/apache2/includes/vhost/*.conf

 # Can't use Location block since it would overshadow all the other proxypass directives on CentOS
 ProxyPass /openproject/ http://127.0.0.1:6000/openproject/ retry=0
 ProxyPassReverse /openproject/ http://127.0.0.1:6000/openproject/
</VirtualHost>

It should be some trivial configuration mistake. Any hints? 

Many thanks for your help,

Simone

OK, I too have this same issue, exactly with Unbuntu 18.04, just as Marcel - everything looks good to go, but I can't get past this. I agree that it should be something trivial, but what? Please respond!

I have the same problem too wuth ubunt 18.04. I followed the instructions step by step, without problems.

Any idea?

Does anyone has clue how to deal with it?

Instead of trying to access the webpage on port 6000 just try localhost IP. Worked out for me. Don't know why.

Cheers
