Question

i host application on port 80 with host header,

scoring.com is host header with port 80

http://scoring.com

server not found error

after that when i remove host header and just call it via IP on other system over network as well as local system it works fine like,

http://192.168.1.4:80 

what configuration is missing that it is not working on local network when host header apply to it ??

Hopes for your suggestions Thanks !

Answer 1

It seems that your host name is not registered in the DNS.

You can test this by running ping [hostname] command, If the output is Ping request could not find host [hostname] then it's not registered, or nslookup [hostname] command.
