SOLVED Problem with setup

[qimmiq]

'At this point, the Cloudron setup wizard should appear.' Installed Cloudron from the CLI but the setup wizard did not appear. My site launches from var.www.<domain.name>, not var.www.html.

@qimmiq did you visit the setup page via raw IP in the browser? During setup, the Cloudron will only have a self-signed cert without any domain knowledge, even if the DNS already points to that IP.

I have setup my Cloudron following this documentation and had no problems.

Once installation is complete, navigate to https://<IP> in your browser and accept the self-signed certificate.

Welcome!
On what sort of VPS did you run the installer?

Thanks for your responses!

I re-installed Ubuntu desktop and the LAMP stack -- because I had already messed with stuff -- and then reinstalled Cloudron. All seemed well. Still not getting the setup page though when I type the https://<ip>: I'm getting 'Unable to connect.' Same with Firefox and Chrome. With http://<ip> or http://<domain-name>. I get the Apache configuration page. I also have a NAS that's DSM is accessible through https <ip>: 5001. It is a secure connection. That's working fine. My router forwards ports 80 and 443 at my PC running Ubuntu.

I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 on an older Dell PC (2013), with Intel i5-4570. Currently over wifi, until I clear some space closer to the router.

@qimmiq this sounds more like the installation didn't work as expected. Please note that only Ubuntu server is supported in vanilla state, Cloudron will essentially take over the whole system and it is not advised to install anything on the side. In your case I guess the installation of the LAMP stack somehow messed with the Cloudron system, which will have nginx instead of apache running on port 80/443

@nebulon Vanilla then is without the LAMP stack? I didn't understand that Cloudron would install its own web server et al, I will try uninstalling Apache and the others, uninstalling Cloudron, and starting over. Thanks much!

Success! Re-installed Ubuntu, added nothing, and everything worked as advertised!
