Hi all,
We have setup matrix demo using downloaded VM to test couple of things. What I need to know if there is a way to add a URL other then http://matrixdemo.squiz.net
We need to do this so our pc configuration software doesn't filter out exceptions in browser settings.
It is already setup for somthing.ourdomain.com. So is there a way to configure I assume apache in a VM to add extra URL?
Any help would be appreciated
Add a new root url in the system configuration screen of your system settings, and then add the new url to your site asset by right clicking it and selecting the urls option & adding it there.
I have done that but browser doesn't resolve it. isn't there DNS entry that has to point to the server? Sorry this isn't my area of expertise.
Can original demo url be changed?
Any time you make up a new server name in your domain, you need to have it registered in DNS. This would normally be done by whoever looks after your network infrastructure.
As a workaround, assuming you know the IP address of your server, and assuming you have local admin rights to your windows desktop you can add an entry to your local hosts file - normally c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (Mac would have an equivalent file but I don’t know the path)
Thank you all, but it didn't work,
I have an IP and I did update hosts file (windows 7) however when using matrixdemo url everything works fine, when using wwwdev.ourdomain.com all I see is Welcome to nginx!
If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required.
For online documentation and support please refer to nginx.org. Commercial support is available at nginx.com.
Thank you for using nginx.
I have configured urls in Matrix and created a site so it is a bit strange.
