      Please can I get some advice on how to temporarily forward port 80/443 to the install so it can finish setup?

        We need a bit more information here to help you out.

        Do you have a local server?
        Are you using a VPS?

        But you could try a local port forward via ssh like this:

        ssh -L 8443:localhost:443 root@my.domain.tld
        

        But if your server has problems now accessing port 80/443 I doubt this will help in the long run.

        Please provide more information.

          Local Server, as able to complete the setup fine on Linode & AWS. Once Installed Cloudron on Ubuntu & I access the IP from my Browser it just takes me straght through to the Web Console for my Router, instead of the cloudron page to complete setup. I was advised here to Port forward 80 & 443 to my Install temporarlily, but Iin not sure how to actually do that, sorry still a newbie lol

            Why did you open a new issue then?
            This is the same topic.

            https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/5785/unable-to-finish-setup-in-browser?_=1633890295773

            Please put yourself in my shoes, I have no clue what type of setup you are running.
            Provide as many information as possible.

            If it's a local server in your local network you should be able to access the local IP and not the public ip.

              @brutalbirdie Example.

              My computers local IP is 192.168.178.23 and my home office server is 192.168.178.2 and I can access 192.168.178.2 in my local network.

                I am realy sorry I didnt mean to open a new topic, I just replied as topic by mistake. So its a Home Server & fresh install of Ubuntu, as soon as I have run the script:
                wget https://cloudron.io/cloudron-setup
                chmod +x ./cloudron-setup
                ./cloudron-setup
                There is a prompt to click on the url after reboot to complete the install. Usually this takes me to cloudron domain setup page when I set up on Linode.
                When I do this on my home server, the url just takes me to the router's web interface. I just need help with port forwarding from 443 to my private IP

                  @molinaire again, yes that is expected, you still fail to provide simple information.
                  I asked if you can use the local IP.
                  Also if you need help with port forwarding in the router, maybe write what router you are using.

                      Sadly I am unfamiliar with this type of router. But did you check your manual for port forwarding?

                      https://www.bt.com/help/broadband/getting-set-up/user-guides-and-manuals-for-bt-hubs

                      But when you can access the internal IP address can't you finish the Cloudron setup via this IP in the Browser?

                        @brutalbirdie Thank you so much! Ill give it a go. Really appreciate your help. Hopefully the internal IP wont ake me to my router web console & onto the cloudron doman registration page.
