I have tried running Beego on AWS, but no matter what I have tried, I can't seem to connect to port 8080, which is where Beego is running on. I'm not sure if it's an AWS or a Beego issue, but I can't seem to connect to port 80 either (I have tried to change the security group setting, including adding a new one to allow access to both ports). However, when I curl 127.0.0.1, a Beego template is there, but there is nothing at my E2 instance. I changed the app.conf file's httpaddr to 0.0.0.0, but that didn't seem to do much. How can I approach this problem?
Check you conf/app.conf
file:
httpaddr = localhost
By default, beego can be configured to listen to localhost only (as stated in this answer).
Other issues include (for the AWS part):
netstat -anp|grep 80
and sudo iptables -L
For ubuntu, the OP dtrinh100 mentions in the comments having to:
get it to work by disabling iptables, but since I'm running Ubuntu, it was a little different.
I used the iptables command from "How to start/stop iptables on Ubuntu?", which allowed me to turn off iptables in Ubuntu.
