Greetings,

Just started Abyss, after a tumultuous battle with Apache on the XP platform. Anyways, I'm able to access the webserver no problem, but I can't access the console whatsoever. I followed the advice in checking for any proxies on my IE 6.0 just to be sure and I don't have any running. Default is: 127.0.0.1:9999, but I went into the Abyss.conf file and just changed it to 9998 to see if I could remedy the situation, but still no go.

At the moment, whenever I try to access the console, I'm faced with an HTTP 500 (Page could not be displayed). I don't have any firewall of any sort (even XP's) running and I disabled my antivirus (just as a precaution), but it's still status quo.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Minor correction: HTTP 500 - Internal Server Error

It turns out that I didn't in fact turn off Norton A/V properly before restarting Abyss. Disabling its "File System Real-Time Protection", stopping and restarting Abyss did the trick in being allowed to finally access the console.

Guess all there is left to say is keep up the good work Aprelium.

For some reason, the boards won't e-mail me my forgotten password so I had to register a new account. This is still the original Enigma though. ;)

Either way, recently, I cannot access my console once again. My anti-virus' real-time scanning feature is disabled and I can't find any other service using my localhost (especially on port 9999, which is where the console was originally configured to be at).

I'm always getting an Internal Server Error (HTTP 500) now. I've checked my browser under Tools > Connections > LAN Settings to make sure I wasn't using a proxy and that didn't work. I've also taken my software firewall complete offline and tried, but no dice.

At this point, I'm clueless on what to do to access my console so that I can change a few settings to fool with PHP once again. Can anyone help me out on this?

heh, I realize now why I could never get e-mailed my password for what I thought was an old registered account. Silly me.

After scanning the forums via the search feature of these boards, initially, I couldn't find a match using the keywords I chose. After some digging, I did find a temporary solution in the following thread.

This still does not resolve the issue I have where I can't view my console via http://127.0.0.1:<console port> route. Does anyone have any insight that may shed light on the reason why? Any input would be appreciated.

http://127.0.0.1:9999 is only valid on the computer on which AByss Web Server runs. Alternatively, you can use on that computer http://localhost:9999. But if you intend to access the console from another computer, you should use the LAN or WAN IP of the computer on which the server runs.

Thanks for the feedback.

I am aware of the alternative ways of locally accessing your console. I'm not accessing my console from another computer so it's safe to assume that the webserver resides on the box I'm trying to access the console from.

The problem I have is that the server is running and I can't access the console via http://127.0.0.1:9999/ or the localhost example you put up.

The reason I had an issue the first time around was because my A/V real-time scanning feature acted like a proxy and prohibited my access to the console. After disabling the real-time A/V scanning, I had no issue. That was late last year. Here I am currently trying to access my console and the only way I can is by using http://myipaddress:<consoleport>. To my knowledge there are no proxies running and my browser isn't configured to use one so I'm stumped on what the issue is.

Open a DOS box on the computer where Abyss Web Server runs and execute:
Code:

ping 127.0.0.1

What is the answer?

lol, You won't believe this. Right after I posted this results, I figured, why not try accessing the console out of sheer instinct.

Results: console accessed.

I have no clue why this issue all of a sudden corrected itself because I haven't modified any services on my box or modified any configuration whatsoever. In fact, I haven't even booted up this box in at least a day and a half.

Very strange.

Thanks for invested some time though and patience with me.

Must be those damn gremlins.

And now the same issue has arisen once again.

Just before taking off, I tried to access the console and an HTTP 500 occurs again.

There must be something on your computer that prevents you from accessing port 9999. Do an exhaustive investigation to find it.

Sorry for not being able to help you too much since we don't have access to your computer.
