 * Hi,
 * I’ve just started working with WordPress, and with the default install, I can
   create a page and browse it using HTTPS, but if I try to use HTTP, I get:
 * Not Found
 * The requested URL /apps/wordpress/ was not found on this server.
    Apache/2.2.25(
   Debian) Server at 10.2.3.78 Port 80
 * Does anyone have a suggestion?

 * I tried the default https: and also http:
 * WordPress Address (URL)
    [https://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress](https://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress)
 * Site Address (URL)
    [https://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress](https://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress)
 * WordPress Address (URL)
    [http://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress](http://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress)
 * Site Address (URL)
    [http://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress](http://ip.address.of.server/apps/wordpress)
 * Unfortunately, I just broke something by trying another setting here and can’t
   access the WordPress admin page. Can you tell me which file contains these settings?
 * Thanks

 * Change the urls back. See [Changing_The_Site_URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL)
   for details of how to do this correctly.

 * Back to the original problem, here are some config files in case this gives any

 * I have this on an internal server at the moment, while I try to convert our old
   site. It is not accessible from the outside. Does that make a difference?

 * Yes – it may well do. But troubleshooting your internal server is really beyond
   the remit of these forums. Have you spoken to the server’s administrator?

 * I have connected the server to an external IP, and there is no difference when
   accessed using that. I will be administering the server, and neither our IT department
   or a Linux centric colleague have any suggestions.
 * Thanks!

 * I’m sorry but this seems to be well outside of WordPress, so there really is 
   nothing else that I can offer. 🙁

 * You don’t think it has to do with any of the WordPress config files or database
   variables? I’m not sure why WordPress would come pre-configured to only support
   https. Thanks

 * Not as far as I can tell. WordPress is not pre-configured to use https or http.

 * It was the WordPress installer for my device (Netgear ReadyNAS 516) that assigned
   WordPress to an alternate port because 80 was being used by the administration
   manager to redirect to its https login.
 * It was necessary to disable that feature, change the port assignment for WordPress,
   and I also moved it into the website directory and updated the php database entries
   for home and site url using phpmyadmin so the new directory was included. A few
   files (images) had to be re-linked to the new directory, but other than that 
   things seem to be working.
 * Thanks
