Setting up a domain name

Hi guys!

Im really confuse about how to set my domain name on my server…
right now im accessing my server via ip address plus the port i set…Now i want to access my server in the web by a domain name…
Ex:
IP Address:192.168.89.255:8080
Change to: mydomain.com
How can i set my servers domain name…

Thanks guys!

Hi, you can use bench to setup domain

bench setup add-domain mydomain.com --site [site]
bench config dns_multitenant on
bench setup nginx
sudo service nginx restart

I have another question .
if i can setup my domain name on my server the port is included right… im very new at this , can you help figuring out?

Hi

I think you just follow these step. anything error pls post here.

got this error
bench setup add-domain qwerty.com --site site1.local
is it correct?

can you list your site?
run
ls sites/

i got
apps.txt assets comon_site_config.json currentsite.txt erpnext.vm

try this command but with --site erpnext.vm

it works … but i cant access my domain through my browser…

you must edit your hosts file for that

Hey,
Having a similar issue.
After doing the steps outlined above I keep getting the Sorry We’ll Be Back Soon page on the IP address not the domain name that was set up.
Bear in mind that the domain name continues to change to the IP address. The only difference is that I can no longer log in.

What could be causing this and how to fix?
Thanks

Once you turned on the dns multitenant mode, you wont be able to access it using IP address.
You may revert it using this:

bench config dns_multitenant off
bench setup nginx
sudo service nginx restart

I understand that however when the domain name is entered, it changes to the IP address.

Also changing dns_multitenant to off did not make a difference.

I have also tried editing my hosts file to no avail.

May you share your nginx.conf on frappe-bench/config ?
