Hi,
I'm running Tomcat 6 (on a windows vist client) and have installed subsonic sucsesfully. I like the application. It is working very good.

However it's availeble via my internal 192.168.1.x adres but via the external IPadres. I have configured my Belkin router. It is relaying to HTTP://192.168.1.x on HTTP port 8080.

Am i missing something.

I had a similar problem too. I was trying access it on port 8080 even though I didn't have anything else running on that port. I finally ended up configuring Subsonic and the router to use port 85 instead and now it works perfectly.

Try changing the port...hopefully it'll help.

How do you configure Subsonic to communicate via port 8585? De router settings are no problem for me...

You can right-click on the Subsonic icon in the system tray and configure the port there.

Otherwise, if you don't see the icon you can go into the install directory and edit the subsonic.exe.vmoptions file using notepad:

C:\Program Files\Subsonic\subsonic.exe.vmoptions

I can confirm that i was also unable to get to Subsonic using port 8080 also.

Port 81 and 1234 both worked perfectly tho.

Ok, guys...I just realized why most people have a problem connecting to Subsonic using the default port 8080. Most routers (like my D-Link) use that port for their web-based admin interface.

Sindre...you might consider making the default port upon installation something else so that people don't have this same issue over and over again.

It's working. I think that is has something to do with the combination of the webinterface from my Belkin router. I also had another webserver running which i have disabled.

To be absolutely shure I've made an entry in Windows defender. I've made a link between port 80 and Subsonic and allowed the application to use this port permanently.

I'm happy! Thanks for all the idea's

How do I do this if my Subsonic is running on Apache Tomcat and not windows?

Thanks / Patrik

Sorry PeeGee,

I only have experience with Windows, so I wouldn't know for Apache/Unix.
