OSX Server - Databasing, world wide web access help

so i have just gotten a new mac mini server and i plan on using it to host my web server. included the actual web server a mysql server a dns server and so on but i figures it would be easyer to just buy OSX Server. well i did and i have the server up just 2 problems first there is no dadabasing server atleat that i could find and second i can only access the web site if in on a local network. now i think it may have something to do with port 80 but i dont know can someone help me thanks

- OS X Server includes the Postgres database system. You could also install MySQL from a 3rd party (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/macosx-installation.html)
- Have you verified that the server is available to the outside world overall? Have you verified your DNS configuration? What type of connection do you have to the internet? Does that connection provide you with a public IP or does it use NAT?

  • World Wide Web Publishing Service Stopping

    Hi,
    I have Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition R2. The World Wide Web Publishing service keeps stopping randomly, making it impossible for people to access their emails via OWA.
    Would anybody know why this would be occurring and how it could be resolved.
    Regards.

    Hi, I would add to Susie, that depending on your Exchange version, as I guess you are at 2007 (as it support 2003x64), you can repair the IIS website easilly.
    That link got a good todo;
    - How To: Recreate OWA Virtual Directory 2007
    Do you use that IIS to deliver other website ? or only the OWA ?  If only the OWA you can safelly repair it with the Exchange built-in commandshell.
    If you tried in the past to remove the IIS, or such manipulation it break deeply Exchange, thus can lead to a buggy IIS. See that link if you tied some manupulation on the IIS (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320202/en-us)

  • How do I set up Mozilla to accept connections on port "The World Wide Web service (HTTP)"?

    When attempting to embed a video in PowerPoint 2013, the message "Sorry we are having some temporary service issues" appears.
    In researching the problem at Microsoft. com, the following message was received: Mozilla is not set up to accept connections on port "The World Wide Web service (HTTP)."

    Hmm... PowerPoint should use Windows to connect to the internet and not Firefox.
    Which method are you using?
    (1) Insert > Video > Online Video
    Apparently there was an update this month that enables this, as described in this support post (see top Answer just after the question): [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-powerpoint/embedding-online-you-tube-video-in-powerpoint-2013/0bc00dde-420c-4c6a-bd47-3fb105ce40fc Embedding online you tube video in powerpoint 2013 - Microsoft Community]

  • World wide web crawling and gateway

    Hi all,We'd like to crawl a world wide web site and open the documents/contents thru the gateway.While we set up the www data source, with the "using gateway" option selected, the portal asks for a web service: which is the correct one? Do we need to create a new one and, if yes, what should we specify in Container URL, Document URL and Upload URL fields?Thanks, Federico

  • Any info on the World Wide Web Consortium

    I kind of stumbled on this site, http://www.w3.org/ & was wondering if anyone had some input. A link from the site, lets you do a check of your website to see if it conforms to the open standards of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and checks for various errors. Here's the link http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
    I have three iWeb sites.
    1) links directly to my site using web.mac.com/user/site
    2) links to my domain name using web forwarding
    3) links to my domain name using .mac personal domain
    If I put 1 + 2 in the CSS Validator, it says no errors were found & the site conforms to the W3C
    If I put site 3, using my domain name as the URL, it says there are errors
    If I put the web.mac.com/user/site URL for site 3 it has no errors & says the site conforms to W3C.
    So my question is, does any one know if by using .Mac Personal Domain, would it make a difference in how a site would be validated by CSS

    The validator just checks to see if there are grammatical errors in the code. Just as in written/spoken human language.
    A browser may not understand what is being said. Just as in real life.
    Most problems occur in executing the JavaScript.
    Also, Firefox cs. have difficulty displaying the shades and mirrors of images. Just because they cannot interpret the JavaScript. W3 cannot check that.
    Internet Explorer usually has no idea what a webpage is. Try [this page|http://web.mac.com/wyodor/boxsamples> and [this one|http://web.mac.com/wyodor/hello_world> to get the idea.
    My impression is that iWeb is a bit too advanced for some browsers.
    Ignoring some minor errors, iWeb pages validate correctly.

  • Mac Mini Server Database Set-up - Configure & Implement Help

    I have a database developer who is fluent in PC languages but not fluent with Macs who need serious help setting up my new database solution using my new Mac Mini Server running Lion 10.7.2.  They are lacking the Mac knowledge - but are working on building my database / website solution - to be implementated on the Mac Mini Server.
    Quickly...Here's what we are building.  I own an Event Photography business specializing in Youth Sports.  I bring all the Mac system Computers, (MacBook Pro's, 8 iPad 2's, AirPort Extreme, Mac Mini Server).   *Important Note* - we will not ever have internet connection.  We will offer photos taken directly at the Event...to View & Order via our wireless iPads (used simply for viewing photos).  Customers are "viewing" photos from the iPads - accessing photos from our (off-line) website / database Hosted locally on our Mac Mini Server.  All our Mac Computers are "wired" / connected / to the AirPort Extreme and "shared" on a local net (again with No-internet access).
    Is there anyone out there who can help them by phone / internet / shared screen etc. to HELP SET UP THE MAC MINI SERVER - to make the database work? They need help with PHP, My SQL, Apachee set-up & configure questions.
    This all sounds very complex to a Non-Database guy...but probably a simple check-list walk-thru helpful guide - for someone who's more knowledgeable with working with the Mac Mini Server.
    Thanks....Anyone??

    well to be honest I wanted a server to run more aspects of what I do privately (rather tahn at work) rather than use hosted accounts from disparate hosted providers on line. In partcular wanted a mail server to handle multiple mail domains, wiki server, web sever as per mail server and I was interested in what they would provide for iphone ipad etc as I have a few that I wanted to link to a server rather than individual macs and pcs 
    I also thought that Apple might bring their abilities to creating a great UI for essentially linux operating systems to  a server os.
    from initial views though it might have been easier (cheaper) to go to ubuntu and just their server version of linux. Anyway I will persist - I will read through the stuff you guys have linked me to - colinsolutions appears to have aimed me at some useful stuff. Looks like a bigger "project" than i imagined - but I havent looked at UNIX since 1986 so if I have to get into the command line it wont kill me I am sure.
    thanks for the input - if anyone else can suggets good resources that would be appreciated.
    ps simon - i found that the name for the server with the .local extension is visibile from the mac via finder and allows me to connect to the shared folder. so my server is sdhome - the shared resource is sdhome.local ... not sure if this helps but...

  • Small Business Server 2011 Essentials Remote Web Access fails to connect to Windows 8.1 PC

    I am using Remote Web Access (RWA) gateway with Small Business Server 2011 Essentials.
    There are several workstations all running Windows 7, and have been using RWA without an issue for well over a year.
    There is now a Windows 8.1 Pro PC added to this domain, but the Remote Desktop does not connect.
    The Windows 8.1 PC appears in the RWA pages, It requests the credentials to connect, and then fails with the following error:
    Remote Desktop can't find the remote computer "COMPUTERNAME". This might mean that the "COMPUTERNAME" does not belong to the specified network. Verify the computer name and domain that you are typing to connect to.
    I can connect to all other PC fine (running Windows 7). I have tried from different locations and PC's and the results are the same.
    I thought I had fixed this problem a few weeks back.  After running all updates on the server and Windows 8.1 PC, and rebooting both, the RDP worked, but I think it only worked once and then failed the next time someone tried to use it. I have not had
    a successful connection to the Windows 8.1 PC since.
    I am at a loss on how to troubleshoot this as there are no errors on the system which can't be accessed.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Hi Mr Cheese,
    à
    I turned off the Firewall on the Windows 8.1 PC and the RDP is now working.
    Thanks for sharing in the forum. Your time and efforts are highly appreciated.
    Based on your description, this issue is related to Firewall. Would you please let me know current situation
    of this issue?
    Just addition. Please open Control Panel, select Windows Firewall and click Allow an app or feature through
    Windows Firewall. Then please check if Remote Desktop is allowed. Meanwhile, please click Advanced settings in Windows Firewall panel and click Inbound Rules, then check if rules which be related to Remote Desktop were enabled.
    If any update, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,

  • Can't download files on Android from Server 2012 Essentials Remote Web Access

    I have two servers, one with Windows Server 2012 Essentials, and the other SBS 2011.  Employees like using Remote Web Access to log in from anywhere and have access to shared folders.  It works perfect on a Desktop computer, but when they try to
    use their Android tablets or phones, and want to download a file (e.g. a PDF) from one of the shared folders on the server, the download fails.   When Microsoft was pushing 2012 they said RWA worked great on mobile devices, do I have to set up something
    separately to make this happen?
    I've completely disabled the firewall, and have ports 80,443,987, and 1723(just to be safe) all forwarded to the server.
    I can log into the RWA site on the android, browse files and folders, but when I select a PDF to download, the download shows as if it's starting, shows in my android notification as if its going to start downloading (Shows MobileDownload www.mydomain.com)
    but eventually after a few minutes, will time out and show "Download Unsuccessful".
    Network connectivity is fine as I can do this on a Windows Desktop PC using any browser (Chrome, Firefox, IE) and successfully download anything I want.
    UPDATE:  I found this in the event handler when I tried to download something from a mobile device...

    Hi,
    Before going further, would you please let me confirm something firstly?
    Would you please let me know if all Android devices
    encounter this same issue? If you download different type files, will still this issue persists? You can upload a small file (such as a text file) to the share folder, then check if Android device can’t download it.
    Based on your description, when logon a desktop computer, you will download files via RWA successfully. Please use the user account which logon computer to logon
    the Android device, will still fail to download?
    Please check if there has enough free space in Android devices that be used to save download.
    When this issue occurred, please check the state of Android device in Dashboard. Besides, I suggest you should run the Best Practices Analyzer (BPA) and fix all
    it can find. Then monitor the result.
    Run the Windows Server 2012 Essentials Best Practices Analyzer

  • How i upload a web page named index.html generated by NI Web UI Builder in thin client application on world wide Web

    Hello All,
                   I have an example which use simulated signal with its web service generated by LabVIEW. Then an application of this web service was created using NI web UI builder. And application was build and deployed on NI Cloud Portal, a zip file was downloaded of that project  after build and deploying application.
    The downloaded file contain a thin client application like :index.html page, readme file etc.
                  Now problems is this index.html runs easily on http://localhost:8080/appname/index.html or on my computer name like
    http://iaa42:8080/appname/index.html web page runs and shows updated values in indicators and graphs  but when i use ip address of my system like http://192.168.1.6:8080/appname/index.html , index.html runs but the values in indicator and graphs remains 0 (zero) constantly.     how can i get all indicators and graphs updating continously on by using my ip address like same when i use localhost or computer name in url bar.    1st problem is this.
    Now 2nd question.
                 I get a page index.html in a zip file built by NI web UI builder now i want this page to be viewed by every one world wide
    where should i upload that code. Should NI Cloud Portal be my hosting server for that web page ? or i have to purchase a domain other than NI cloud portal?
     Thanks in Advance
    Regards
    Waqas

    Hi Waqas,
    For your first question, my first thoughts turn to your router (which I assume you are using with a 192.168.x.x address). Are you sure you are configuring your ports and firewalls to allow NI services to function? Here is a really good resource on how to check if your ports and firewalls are configured properly:
    http://www.ni.com/white-paper/12402/en/
    For your second question, when you deploy a web service you are hosting it on your local machine. If you wanted to host it elsewhere (i.e. another server or another domain) you would have to be sure that the server hosting your application has the LabVIEW run-time engine installed.

  • Cannot contact Exchange Server or open Outlook Web Access in Safari

    I am a small business user operating in an Exchange environment and have been having some connectivity problems:
    1. Mail: I have been able to connect to and download emails from my Exchange server in Mail (both public and private folders) but have not been able to send mails through the same account. The server address is the same address as we use for Outlook Web Access (OWA). We do not use POP or SMTP, nor do we have separate addresses on the Exchange/OWA account.
    2. Safari: For some reason, it is not possible for me to open OWA; Safari just "hangs" indefinitely and does not prompt for password or username. The window just remains blank. My OWA works perfectly with Windows-based machines.
    3. Address: it is not possible to contact the Exchange server from Address Book to synchronize contacts. I keep getting an error that "iSync couldn't connect to Exchange". As I have just purchsed an iPhone, it is critical to make this work, otherwise I have no contacts on the iPhone.
    In all cases, my Exchange/OWA server address is *https://mail.servername.com/exchange/username* for both outgoing and incoming mails. I have checked that the password and username are correct.
    Can somebody help me here? Is there a server or client side adjustment that needs to be made? Are there any special certificates that are required? Making this work is really important...
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Message was edited by: ERAC

    I have the exact same problem as you have detailed in your #2 comment. OWA just hangs and will not proceed to the sign in screen. Any luck getting support on this?

  • How do I connect my iPad wirelessly to my Mac lion osx server to be able to access photos, movies and songs

    I would like to connect my iPad with my Mac server so that I can access songs, movies and photos on the server. How can I do this?

    I think you might be a little confused between iTunes on the iPad and iTunes on the Mac.
    You cannot update iTunes on the iPad separately from the entire operating system on your iPad.
    Its iTunes on your Mac that is not up to date.
    I order to sync an iPad running iOS 6 or later (you indicate yours is on iOS 6.1.3) you must have iTunes 10.7 or later ON YOUR COMPUTER.
    iTunes 10.7 requires a Mac OSX version 10.6.8 or later.
    You indicate that your Mac is running OSX 10.5.8 (Leopard). That's not good enough. You need a Mac with OSX higher than 10.5.8. Depending on which Mac you have you might be able to update the OSX on the Mac to what's needed for iTunes 10.7.
    If you reply here with the type of Mac you have, the type of processor it has and the amount of RAM it has, we might be able to tell you if you can update it and how to do it. Not all macs can be updated to the required OSX version.

    We are a small design studio looking at setting up a VPN to access local files whilst on the road. I believe I have all the configuration setup correctly in Mac OSX server but I am a little out of my element when know which ports to forward on the router and if it is even setup to accept VPN connections.
