Servers and Google Coder for Pi

Sat Oct 11, 2014 11:50 am

Hi,
I have been trying to set up a server with my Pi (Model B Rev2), with the idea that I could use Google Coder for Raspberry Pi (http://googlecreativelab.github.io/coder/) to write my HTML/JS Code (as I currently have little experience with HTML or JavaScript), and then export the code as a zip and publish it on my web server hosted by the pi.

I have flashed the Google Coder image onto the Pi on a 16GB SD card. I then followed the instructions in the Raspberry Pi User Guide, which involves me installing a LAMP stack, and later, wordpress (which I haven't got to yet). Once I had installed the LAMP Stack, I tried visiting the IP of my pi on my windows laptop in Chrome, but only the standard Google coder interface comes up. Eventually I would like the server to be accessible from anywhere on the web, so that I can host a personal site.

Is there any way to have both Google Coder and a local/world-wide web server running on the pi at once?


Thanks in advance,

Archie

Likely coder is a LAMP stack and all you have to do is put your code in the correct folder.
If it's not using Apache / Lighttpd / etc then you can just use another port

As someone has already tried to say... Google Coder IS a webserver. Why do you need another one?

Making any webserver running on your RPi a world-wide server is an issue for the security and routing configuration of the network to which it is connected - it has very little to do with the RPi itself. 'Port Forwarding' is the magic key-phrase to search for.
