I'm trying to deploy a web service (wsdl) on a machine running Ubuntu 12.04 and access it service via external network, i.e. the internet.
At first, I tested with apache2 by starting it and accessing a simple website via http://<ip-adress>/
. It worked fine
Secondly, I stopped apache2 and started my service running on port 80. My service could be access locally via http://localhost/
but was inaccessible using http://<ip-address>
I wonder if I missed something or apaches contained external features allowing service to be access externally.
