Question
after ghost install: can access via ip address
My one click install went well. I’m able to ssh into the site, but I can’t access the site via IP.
The directions say
As soon as you’re done, make sure to configure the admin user using the administrative interface at http://use_your_droplet_ip/ghost (making sure to substitute the Droplet’s IP address in the URL). Until you configure the admin user, anyone who discovers the site can configure the administrative user, take control of the Ghost site, and potentially take control of the Droplet.
Every browser I use shifts the url from http://use_your_droplet_ip/ghost to https://use_your_droplet_ip/ghost.
I have taken these steps:
- Updated my A records from the place I bought the domain.
- Destroyed droplet and tried again
- Tried to turn off security in my browser
- Searched tutorials and read questions here
I’m stuck. How do I access http://use_your_droplet_ip/ghost?
