Re: [python-uk] Setting up Django on Google Cloud (basic server)

There was a discussion on a slack channel a few days ago with someone who, suspiciously, had the same name and problem. They'd tried to set up firewall rules (not sure they worked) and was trying to get it running via port 80 with gunicorn. Haven't heard anything else so assuming fixed.

I had this issue before with AWS i remember it was just as stressful then and actually can't remember what actually fixed it. I basically have a clean Ubuntu VM which I followed this guide https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-16-04 step by step on creating and hosting django on a site.

Every step worked smoothly until this point when I need to run the command "python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000" which starts the service (shown on the attached screenshot) (also is the google cloud page showing the given external ip) according to this with the server waiting visiting http://35.227.49.155:8000/ should bring the site or something but it fails to connect i get "

This site can't be reached

Have you checked the firewall rules?

I would suggest adding a tag to your Instance and then creating a firewall rule for the same tag which allows port 8000 TCP ingress.

See https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/firewalls#default_firewall_rules
