What is the default URL & port of open project and how can it be changed to a subdomain?

Added by Rob Davis over 6 years ago

2 questions please:

  1. I have installed OpenProject but I don't know what to enter for an address in my browser.

The installation instruction guides seem to have omitted this, they don't have this information.

For example, if my server has an IP of a.b.c.d then can I expect to be able to browse to open project like so: http://a.b.c.d:portnumber ?

I researched online and I could find mentions of port 80, port 3000, port 6000

But I tried all of these:

http://a.b.c.d:80

http://a.b.c.d:3000

http://a.b.c.d:6000

But none worked - I either got my default apache server page or address not found.

2 ) Secondly, I want openproject to be accessed from a subdomain e.g.

projects.domain.com

But again, there doesn't appear to be any documentation about this.

Where would I set this - where are the config files, do I need to run a command afterwards?

I already configure Apache2 sites-available vhosts on my server for other applications. So I would expect to setup a vhost for openproject to point my subdomain to openproject - but I'd need the answer to 1) above.

Please can I have advice on the above.

I know it's possible. And I will find out for myself eventually (and post it here) but I would be grateful for the definitive guide as to how to do this as I know from searching that others are trying to do this.

I have already seen several similar questions about the same, but there are either no solutions or incomplete information.

I have a similar problem.

Our OP is accessible via sub.domain.com, and I would like to run other services on the same VPS, but from what I can see Apache config files are under OP control. Vhosts don't work in that case.

No idea how to deal with it.

[solved]

Very simple: one needs to set up a custom apache conf file with properly set

Alias

That's it.
