Graylog web interface not loading

Graylog Central (peer support)

Hello,

I am setting up a Graylog server on an AWS EC2 instance. I’ve gotten as far as configuring the Graylog server, mongodb, and Elasticsearch correctly but I cannot seem to access the web interface.

I’ve set a DNS record for graylog.host.tld to the public IP of the server, and set my external uri and publish uri in the graylog configuration to http://graylog.host.tld. I’ve set the bind address to the private IP of the server and am successfully able to curl http://<private-ip>:9000 and it returns the HTML for the graylog login page, so I know the server is working.

I’m guessing I just have some wrong configuration for the publish/external Uris or DNS or both. Does anyone happen do know what’s going on?

Thanks a lot in advance.

What error are you getting when you try to access the web interface?

@Ponet I’m not getting an error, just non stop loading and eventual timeout when trying to load the web interface from http://graylog.host.tld:9000.

I have a hunch that it could be the way I set up the DNS. Just a simple A record point that domain to the IP of the server. I can’t seem to find anything online about DNS setup with graylog, so just took a shot in the dark.

Have you opened port 9000 on the firewall?
