Not Able to find following lines in my server.conf
[is_master = true
node_id_file = /etc/graylog/server/node-id
password_secret = xxxxxx
root_password_sha2 = xxxxx
root_timezone = America/New_York
plugin_dir = /usr/share/graylog-server/plugin

I followed Official documentation link : https://docs.graylog.org/en/3.1/pages/installation/os/ubuntu.html

when I change any line in server.conf file it stops hosting.

    http_bind_address = my_IP_Addr:9000
    2)http_publish_uri = http://my_IP_Addr:9000/
    http_external_uri = http://my_IP_Addr:9000/
    http_enable_cors = false
  2. also tryed both 1 and 2 combination
    but none of this work

Try to change:

http_bind_address = 0.0.0.0:9000
http_publish_uri = http://my_IP_Addr:9000/
http_external_uri = http://my_IP_Addr/

Sorry, still not working.

Check if your firewall (on graylog or edge) doesn’t block connection to port http and 9000/tcp.
Try to telnet to port http, or 9000 if it works.

I already did that yesterday. I open the port 9000 for tcp and to all also check telnet connection it’s working fine.

Is there anything interesting in graylog log?

11

we are planning to use it to monitor and save logs of our .net API hosted on IIS server.can you suggest any other open source tool ?

12

graylog is great software for this kind of job…

You probably didn’t understand my question, I asked if there is some error messages in graylog log file, usually in /var/log/graylog-server/server.log

Hi, Thanks For the all the brother. just solved it. I have to enable cors for https.
and for binding I use 0.0.0.0:9000 as you suggested. Now it’s working.

Thanks Again.
