Not seeing anything in Home Screen

Hello all. I'm running subsonic in a Windows 10 virtual machine on ESXi 6. Version installed is 6.1.5 (build 759abe) – December 1, 2018
If I go to the index page, I see the songs I uploaded and I'm able to play them from the web login if I connect remotely to the server, IF i do this connected to the WEB GUI from the actual server I don't get playback for the songs. That's problem number one.
Problem number two is that I can't get any indexed song to show in the home screen.
The installation seems to have run OK. What can I look for? I don't think this is a common Issue as there are no recent posts for this problem and the only one I've found so far is from 2010.
Thank you for any comments!
