Redmine

You can use text based browsers (such as elinks or lynx) to test the connection from localhost. Normally "elinks" is available for Fedora users. In that case, use:

1. elinks http://localhost:3000

Also you can check whether the port 3000 is open (by mongrel) by using the command:

1. lsof -i -P | grep 3000

Thanks Neil

I tried elinks and redmine is working perfectly,but still can't access from my windows station and I need to access to Redmine from distant stations. do you have any ideas?

the result of the command lsof -i -P | grep 3000 is :

mongrel_r  1027    root    3u  IPv4 4092740       TCP *:3000 (LISTEN)

so I presume that the port is open.

I strongly believe that a firewall is blocking the access. Could you please try clearing all your iptable rules using the command:

1. iptables -F

Then try to access it from your windows box. Also try the following from your windows command prompt to see the port 3000 is reachable or not.

1. telnet <your_linux_server_ip> 3000

Thank you very much Neil

Finally it worked, all I needed is the little clear of the iptable ^^

thanks for the speed
