CKAN/Vagrant port forwarding - vagrant

I created a vagrant box and installed ckan inside of it.
In the vagrantfile - i set up port forwarding to 4567 - so when in my browser i type
127.0.0.1:4567
I get to ckan inside the virtual box.
The problem is that now - when i do some actions in ckan like update my profile - I get redirected to
http://127.0.0.1/user/mirmir
which gives me an error of "Not Found - The requested URL /user/mirmir was not found on this server."
If i manually insert the :4567 so it becomes
http://127.0.0.1:4567/user/mirmir
everything works.
Any idea how to fix this?

You should probably be doing this with a private network: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/networking/private_network.html
Once you have added the IP address into your Vagrantfile like this:
config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.50.4"
You should reload vagrant and be able to browse to 192.168.50.4, there should now be no problems because you will not need to use a port in the URL.

Drupal-vm port forward

I have drupalvm setup which has drupal installed. In my custom theme, I have styleguide running on port 6006 (can be configured to different as well as it's node app). I want to expose this to host system. when I do vagrant ssh -- -L 6006:localhost:6006 it's works fine and available on host. Now I have added below to Vagrantfile to make this permanent (as per document here - http://docs.drupalvm.com/en/latest/extending/vagrantfile/):
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 6006, host: 6006
end
Now I can see this port forwarded when I do vagrant port But I can't access localhost:6006 (or use already working drupal hostname - local.drupal.com:6006) on host machine. Do I have to add vhost for it in vagrant, if yes how? OR is there any other way to expose node app to host?

Expose windows vagrant by ngrok

Hi I'm using windows vagrant and homestead developing laravel application.
i have this in my hosts file
192.168.10.10 laravel.dev
I wanted to expose this url so that I can test one requirements like responsiveness and the like. How to do this?
Use the share command: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/homestead#sharing-your-environment
Also, you should change your .dev TLD to .test otherwise browsers will start complaining about your site.
First of all you are you using a private network in your Vagrantfile ? something like :
config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.10.10"

How to route and network Vagrant VM instances?

I have recently started using Vagrant instead of MAMP for some small projects (mainly WordPress) However, decided to try my hand at React and am wondering wether it is possible to use the two together?
At the moment I have a Vagrant setup created via PuPHPet which works fine and runs a local server on a VM which I can access via a URL - local.gethandle.com. I also downloaded a React starter kit as a starting point from a Facebook github page and it requires you to run a server e.g. node server.js which also works and I can access from a separate URL - http://localhost:3000/. But cant seem to access my React application via my Vagrant URL.
How do I combine the two? If at all possible.
Oki doki,
caveat: I've not looked at what kind of VM is provisioned via PuPHPet..
First you'll need to vagrant ssh into your vagrant vm and download the react tools into your vagrant vm
https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/up.html
Second you'll then want to edit your Vagrant file that should be in the directory on your machine where your vagrant settings are, then have a look and add some networking config
https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/networking.html
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 80, host: 4567
# guest is your machine, host is your vagrant vm
# e.g config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 3000, host: 3000
You probably need to add the port to your firewall:

How can I access a vagrant guest from another virtualbox guest?

The scenario is that my dev environment is on a Vagrant box on my laptop (host) and I would like to do browser testing in a vitualbox vm, so I need to see one vm from another.
The vagrant box's port is :8080 which is forwarded to the host on the same port :8080. So I can see the server from the host at localhost:8080
Which address should I be using for the browser testing vm?
The testing vm's default gateway?
The vagrant vm's ip?
The host's virtual network ip?
And should I be using a NAT or host only adapter on the browser testing vm?
That makes for a lot of combinations, all of which I believe I have tried. What else do I need to understand here?
In your use case, you should be using Bridged networking (Public Network in Vagrant). If the VMs reside on the same host, you can even use internal (Private Network in Vagrant).
If using Public Network, the VM's 2nd NIC will be able to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server in your network (e.g. your home router).
Simply add the following code block in your Vagrantfile and do a vagrant reload
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.network "public_network"
end
You should be able to get the IP address by using vagrant ssh and ifconfig / ip addr show.
In case you don't want to go with public_network just like me then you should do the steps below using private_network:
Open Vagrantfile from your project root
Search for config.vm.network
Add this line config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10". Remember this is not the IP of your base machine it's a virtual-box IP address and your machine IP should be different. You can say it's a fake IP address so change it to anything else like 192.168.30.20.
Reload your vagrant using vagrant reload.
Now go to your other virtual guest in my case it's the Windows Guest 2. My base is Linux Mint Vagrant box is on Ubuntu Guest 1. Open C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file as admin and do the above IP's entry in there like 192.168.33.10 local.youralias.com. And save the file, after that you can now browse the site now at http://local.youralias.com/.
In case your guest 2 is also Linux just edit this file sudo vi /etc/hosts, and add this line at top of it 192.168.33.10 local.youralias.com. Now save and exit and browse the URL :)
Enjoy! Happy coding.
Adding to accepted answer, you can actually set IP and specify which network interface to use.
My setup on linux box via wifi and static IP:
You can find your wifi interface name by running ifconfig command.
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.network "public_network", :bridge => 'wlp8s0', ip: "192.168.1.199"
end
This may have many source cause. In my case, I use vagrant fedora boxe.
I tried:
First using the private_network that I attached to a host only adapter and launched httpd service to test the connection between guest and host
config.vm.network "private_network", type: "dhcp", name: "vboxnet2"
config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest:80, host:7070
but I was not able to ping my guest machine from the host and could no telnet the httpd service opened
Second using public_network and launched httpd service to test connectivity
config.vm.network "public_network", bridge: "en0: Wi-Fi (AirPort)", use_dhcp_assigned_default_route: true
I could ping my guest from my host but I could not telnet the httpd service.
For this two use case, the issue was that the port 80 on the fedora guest host was blocked by the firewall. Here is what fixed the issue and get all working for both privat_network and public_ntwork:
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port 80/tcp #open the port permanently
firewall-cmd --zone=public --permanent --add-service=http
firewall-cmd --list-port # list to check if the port was opened
systemctl stop firewalld # stop and open the firewall service
systemctl start firewalld
Old question, new answer: [disclaimer: i am not a vagrant expert]
both solutions might work but the solution in the "vagrant way of thinking" is that some component in your guest (rinetd?) should forward any requests to unknown ports to the host. From the host the request could then be mapped (via vagrant port forwarding) to a services that is running in the other guest.
So, to resume:
1.in guest-1 we do localhost:1234. Guest-1 will detect that this port is not available and forward to host
2. the host will check the vagrant port forwarding and forward to guest-2
3. in guest-2 we have some nice service listening to post 1234
4. done.

Boot2Docker private network setup

How can I do the private networking for the boot2docker docker container ?
For example, If I have a webapp, I can do the following in Vagrantfile
myapp1.vm.network "private_network", ip: "1.2.3.4"
myapp2.vm.network "private_network", ip: "1.2.3.5"
myapp3.vm.network "private_network", ip: "1.2.3.6"
Then I can use my browser to access my webapp at
http://1.2.3.4
http://1.2.3.5
http://1.2.3.6
How can I achieve the same result in docker easily ?
I also looked at How to expose docker container's ip and port to outside docker host without port mapping?
But in my boot2docker1.3, it said the interface eth0:1 does not exist
I looked at https://docs.docker.com/articles/networking
The tutorial does not work for boot2docker in mac.
Any help would be appreciated, thankyou!
I believe the instructions here, linked from this question give what you are looking for. The key is this line:
sudo route -n add 172.17.0.0/16 172.16.0.11
which tells your Mac how to route to the private network inside the VirtualBox VM that the Docker containers are on. (Obviously the specific addresses can change for your specific situation)
This still doesn't give you the ability to assign specific IP addresses to specific containers; as I said an add-on like weave can do that. (note: I work on weave)
You may also like this article which gives a beginner's overview of how Boot2Docker runs and illustrates how you have IP addresses inside the VirtualBox VM, and also an IP address of that box as a whole.
