Hello,
I just installed Graylog to explore it.
I am using a VM on Microsoft Azure for this.
Below are the details of my installation:
Versions:
OS: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Mongo: 3.4.4
Elasticsearch-2.4.5
Java 1.8.0_131
Graylog - 2.2
Public IP of the VM: PublicIP
Private IP of the VM: PrivateIP
Graylog config:
is_master = true
node_id_file = /etc/graylog/server/node-id
password_secret = ##
root_username = admin
root_password_sha2 = ##
plugin_dir = /usr/share/graylog-server/plugin
rest_listen_uri = http://0.0.0.0:9000/api/
web_listen_uri = http://0.0.0.0:9000/
Now, when I start Graylog and try to open the URL: PublicIP:9000,
I am getting the error:
We are experiencing problems connecting to the Graylog server running on PrivateIP:9000/api/
I tried using 127.0.0.1, localhost, hostname, etc. for the rest_listen_uri parameter.
My understanding from the error message is that REST_URI should point to an URL which is publicly available. But I can’t use the PublicIP there else it gives “Unable to Bind” issue during startup.
I am unable to make progress.
Please suggest.
