Unable to access Dspace in other system reg

[sahumah...@gmail.com]

Dear All,

I have installed Dspace 8.0 in Ubuntu24 LTS . It is successfully installed and run in local host only. I have configured the local network following the user guide:

Open the Port 4000

ufw is the default firewall configuration tool. Install ufw by applying the following command,

 

sudo apt install ufw

 

Apply the following command to open port 4000 and 8080.

sudo ufw allow 4000

sudo ufw allow 8080

sudo ufw enable 

Network configuration for DSpace

Find the IP address of the computer where DSpace is installed. Apply the following commands to install net-tools software in Ubuntu and know the network details.

 

sudo apt install net-tools 

ifconfig 

Debian users can apply the following command to know the network details,

nmcli -p device show

Note down the details and add the IP address. 

Open the DSpace configuration file, 

sudo mousepad /dspace/config/local.cfg 

Find the following lines and add the IP address/domain name instead of localhost.

dspace.ui.url = http://localhost:4000 

dspace.server.url = http://localhost:8080/server 

Save and close the file. 

Open the following configuration file (make sure the location of the file in your server) of the DSpace front end, 

sudo mousepad /home/dspace/dspace-angular-dspace-8.0/config/config.prod.yml

Find the following piece of lines, 

ssl: false 

host: localhost 

port: 4000 

Change the hostname. Change localhost to the IP address/domain name.

ssl: false 

host: your-ip-address

port: 4000 

Save and close the file.

Enter into the dspace-angular config folder, 

sudo su

cd /home/dspace/dspace-angular-dspace-8.0/config

Apply the following command to build the front end,

yarn run build:prod

Start the application using PM2. Apply the following command to start the service,

sudo su

pm2 start /home/dspace/dspace-angular-dspace-8.0/dspace-ui.json

Restart the Tomcat,

sudo systemctl restart tomcat10.service

Now I am unable to access it through other system with the public IP / domain name. Kindly provide the solution or step by step guide to configure the public IP / domain.
