I'm currently trying to setup my own own-cloud server, and I've got it fully installed, configured, and accessible from within my own local network. I cannot figure out how to access it from the outside. So far I've:
- Successfully setup port-forwarding on my local router.
- I've done so via 'single port forwarding' and 'port range forwarding'
- Ports 80, 443, 3306 (Apache-Full and MySQL)
- Successfully obtained my external IP address.
- I've also tested this magic number from within the network at
#insertIPhere/owncloud
and it did work.
- I've also tested this magic number from within the network at
- Successfully setup the server using SQLite
- Successfully setup the server using MySQL
- Created the following exceptions in my firewall:
- Allow In Port 80 (Apache Full)
- Allow In Port 443 (Apache Full)
- Allow In Port 3306 (MySQL)
- Tried connecting from several different remote networks, as to troubleshoot something on their end
As far as trying to access it, I'm doing so through Google-Chrome
and Mozilla Firefox
trying to reach the server through #insertIPhere/owncloud
using the above public IP address.
So what have I missed, and how do I access my server from outside?
Thanks in advance for your help and time, and I apologize in advance for what will probably result in my noobish mistake in networking.
I've looked at the official documentation. And also this question here.
