Question
This site cant be reached. The site took too long to respond
I created a django project following instruction in the tutorial. After initial migration and run python manage.py runserver <myip>:8000, I couldn’t access my site. The error message says it take too long to respond. How do I resolve this?

Hi there @cpeters5,
I could suggest a couple of things:
-
Make sure that port 8080 is open for incoming TCP connections via your firewall
-
Make sure that your application is binding to
0.0.0.0:8080rather than127.0.0.1:8080so that it could be accessed via the outside world.
To check that run the following command:
- netstat -plant | grep 8080
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
run initial migration with no error My IP is in ALLOWED_HOST, STATIC_ROOT path exists, ran collectstatic Also added my IP to django_site
Anything else I should try?
