I registered a domain through Github’s Student Education Program and redirected the Nameservers to my DO droplet as given in a tutorial. I pinged server and I am getting a response. I also installed Apache 2 and I have it running when I try “http://localhost/” in my browser. However, if I put the IP address in a web browser, it shows “The Webpage is not available.” Should it not show “It Works!” when I put the IP address too? Please help.
