Changing Default Port

Hello, I would like to change the Sugar CRM Jumpbox default port (80) to something else. I am registered, I have enabled shell access and I have entered the following command via Putty: edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf to add ports. I get a response back indicating that I do not have write access. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Dave

P.S. I am thoroughly impressed with Jumpbox, thanks so much!!!!

Changing Default Port

Hello Dave,
The apache ports are actually set in /etc/apache2/ports.conf and the admin user can't edit them without help. To edit them, SSH in and run

sudo nano /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Now, you can change the 80 to something else, or add a new line just like the other ones.

This 'sudo' command allows the admin user to do things as the root user temporarily. In this case, running the nano editor as root.

One warning, if you use our backup mechanism, it won't backup this change. When you restore it you will have to manually make this change again.

Good luck.

Austin
