I am running django server on my local ip (192.168.86.122:8000) but the windows firewall seems to block the connection.
Any suggestion would be really helpful.
Your network facing ports are probably blocked.
Either use localhost instead:
py manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000
Or allow port 8000 on your windows firewall:
netsh firewall add portopening TCP 8000 "Django Dev Server"

I run my django website with python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8080 on Vagrant which is set up to forward 8080 port to 8081 on host machine. I'm able to access this website on host by going to it's local ip (192.168.X.X) but can't on mobile device (of course also by going into it's local ip).
Any idea? All I could find about this is to run server with 0.0.0.0 what is already happening in my case.
Never mind, I've forgot to enable public_network in my Vagrantfile.
Why can't I run python manage.py runserver on all ports?
I understand this is probably a newbie question, but what prevents me from achieving this?
I would like to access my app without having to include the port, like a regular website
WARNING - Do not run the test server in production!
The reason you have to type in the port when connecting to the test server is because it doesn't run on a standard web port being "http: 80 and https: 443". If you use the command below it will not require the port number be provided when connecting to the test server. Keep in mind that you will need root or sudo access and if something is already running on port 80 it will fail.
Runserver with port:
python manage.py runserver -p 80
Just run it on port 80 and you won't have to specify the port.
You can't blast it on all other ports because many, many other services already use those other ports. Network services need to have ports specified.
I want to allow external access to my website, which is being hosted by Django (development server) on Windows 7. To run the server on port 8000, I enter:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
If I disable the Windows firewall, then this can be accessed externally. However, enabling the firewall means that it cannot be accessed externally.
So, I tried adding an "Inbound Rule" at "Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall\Advanced Settings". Here, I allowed inbound TCP access via port 8000.
However, my website still cannot be accessed externally. What else do I need to do?
Environment Version
OS：Windows 10
Python：3.9.13
Django：4.0.1
open cmd.exe,then run:
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Django Web Server" protocol=TCP dir=in localport=8000 action=allow
If your public ip address is 1.1.1.1
settings.py
# load production server from .env
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['localhost', 'localhost:5085', env('SERVER', default='127.0.0.1'),'1.1.1.1']
open cmd.exe,then run the server on port 8000:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
I'm running OS X Mountain Lion on a machine with local IP address 192.168.1.6 (as reported by both the Network utility and ifconfig) and am running a local (Django) development web server on port 8000 that I would like to connect to from a virtual machine running a guest OS on the same machine.
On the host OS (ie, OS X running on the metal of the machine w/ address 192.168.1.6) I can connect to my test web server through the browser by navigating to 127.0.0.1:8000; or localhost:8000; but not when using the machine's local IP address. Here's what makes this extra confusing:
The router is not filtering the ports; and, just to be sure, I've set it to explicitly forward ports 8000 and 22 to 192.168.1.6; And speaking of port 22,
When I start the SSH service, I can connect (from the command line) via ssh 192.168.1.6
It's not a browser issue, because I also can't telnet to 192.168.1.6 port 8000 (connection refused) while I can telnet to 127.0.0.1 port 8000, and I can also telnet to 192.168.1.6 port 22
The firewall is set to off (as reported in System Preferences) but to be extra safe, I've also set an ipfw rule to allow everything through
Here are the ipfw rules:
00100 allow tcp from any to any dst-port 8000
65535 allow ip from any to any
Here is additional confirmation that the port is, indeed, being listened to by my test server:
netstat -an | grep 8000
tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.8000 *.* LISTEN
so what's going on here? Somehow port 22 is being treated differently than port 8000, but every place I can think to look for those differences I can't find any. Why can't I get into this machine's port 8000 using its local ip address?
When you start Django development server you need to give the address explicitly:
python manage.py runserver 192.168.1.6:8000
Or if you want the server to run on all interfaces you can use:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
In other case Django development server defaults to running on the local interface only.
The problem for me was I accidentally quit the server whenever trying to copy the server address. So instead of using ctrl+C just write down the address into your browser.
I solved the issue.There are a few things you might be missing.Listing them below-
1.Once it starts the server, do not press Ctrl+C anyhow .u might be pressing it to copy to url and that accidently closes the server due to which it might be happening.
2.instead of http://127.0.0.1:8000/ ...change the port number to http://127.0.0.1:8080/ ...That would work.
3.Try changing the firewall setting and allow the app.
4.Try opening it with different browsers and incognito too.
The above steps helped solve my issue.Hope they help u too...:)
I am new to EC2 and web development. Currently I have a Linux EC2 instance running, and have installed Django. I am creating a test project before I start on my real project and tried running a Django test server.
This is my output in the shell:
python manage.py runserver ec2-###-##-##-##.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8000
Validating models...
0 errors found
Django version 1.3, using settings 'testsite.settings'
Development server is running at http://ec2-###-##-##-##.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
To test that it is wroking I have tried visiting: ec2-###-##-##-##.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8000 but I always get a "Cannot connect" message from my browser.
Whenever I do this lcoally on my computer however I do successfully get to the DJango development home page at 127.0.0.1:8000. Could someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong / might be missing when I am doing this on my EC2 instance as opposed to my own laptop?
Using an ec-2 instance with Ubuntu, I found that specifying 0.0.0.0:8000 worked:
$python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
Of course 8000 does need to be opened for TCP in your security group settings.
You probably don't have port 8000 open on the firewall. Check which security group your instance is running (probably "default") and check the rules it is running. You will probably find that port 8000 is not listed.
1) You need to make sure port 8000 is added as a Custom TCP Rule into your Security Group list of inbound ports
2) Odds are that the IP that you see listed on your AWS Console, which is associated to your instance is a PUBLIC IP OR a PUBLIC Domain Name(i.e. ec2-###-##-##-##.compute-1.amazonaws.com or 174.101.122.132) that Amazon assigns.
2.1) If it is a public IP, then your instance has no way of knowing what the Public IP assigned to it is, rather it will only know the its assigned Local IP.
2.2) To get your Local IP on a Linux System, type:
$ ifconfig
Then look at the eth0 Data and you'll see an IP next to "inet addr" of the format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (e.g. 10.10.12.135) This is your Local IP
3) To successfully runserver you can do one of the following two:
$ python manage.py runserver <LOCAL IP>:8000
or
$ python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
** Option Two also works great as Ernest Ezis mentioned in his answer.
EDIT : From The Django Book : "The IP address 0.0.0.0 tells the server to listen on any network interface"
** My theory of Public IP could be wrong, since I'm not sure how Amazon assigns IPs. I'd appreciate being corrected.
I was having the same problem. But I was running RHEL on EC2. Besides from adding a rule to security group, I had to manually add a port to firewalld.
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=8000/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload
That worked for me! (Although no idea why I had to do that)
Yes, if you use quick launch EC2 option, you should add new HTTP rule (just as it appears on the list) to run a development server.
Adding a security group with the inbound rules as follows usually does the trick unless you have something else misconfigured. The port range specifies which port you want to allow incoming traffic on.
HTTP access would need 80
HTTP access over port 8000 would need 8000
SSH to server would need 22
HTTPS would need 443
