Accessing Virtualmin by using server name

Hi:
I just installed my Virtualmin server, added my first virtual domain (pcelements.com) and created an Address Record entry for the server apollo.pcelements.com. including the period at the end.

I can access my server by using the External IP, but not by server name using:
https://apollo.pcelements.com:10000/

Also, I created other virtual servers and are unable to access usermin.
One of them is: https://pcelementspr.com:20000/

What can be wrong? Thanks!

Howdy,

Accessing Webmin/Virtualmin sing the server name is working for me… that may just mean that you’re dealing with a DNS cache issue, and that it’ll be working fine in a few hours.

What error is it that you’re receiving though?

As far as Usermin goes – that does appear to not be working.

That may just mean it’s not running… what happens if you run this command:

/etc/init.d/usermin restart

After doing that, are you able to access Usermin on port 20000?

You were right, I can access my server now using the server name.
Regarding Usermin access, I restarted the service and I’m able to log in, but I got the following message when restarting the usermin service:

Stopping Usermin server in /usr/libexec/usermin

I don’t know if this is related to the other warning, but I also get this when login in the server through ssh:

-bash: warning: setlocale: LC_CTYPE: cannot change locale (UTF-8): No such file or directory
