I’m stuck with comcast too, unfortunately.
I have my router goto my firewall, which has interfaces for a DMZ segement that has my fileservers, DNS server, etc and another segment for the workstations. I’m not sure why you can’t connect the router to a switch and allow traffic freely between your clients?
I’m not sure what you mean by “relative directory”, but if you are able to tx/rx HTTP:80 from your server it’s not a network issue. It sounds like you need to reconfigure httpd.conf with the proper DOCROOT, SERVERNAME, etc for your wordpress install, and also update your DNS records for your LAN. I’m a slackware guy, but the ubuntu forums are active and you should be able to find someone who knows their way around a command line and can help you.
Well, I have all boxes connected via a 10-port switch. I should clarify; I receive the WP title in my web page tabs and if it spins long enough, I can get text without formatting or images. Very strange. It really depends on the CMS. Hand coded php works perfect, DotClear is ok, as is LoveCMS, but not Concrete5.
In terms of realtive URL’s, a CMS provides a field for the installation url. Using DotClear, I can provide a relative URL. WP shows errors when I try that – like a woman without chocolate!
Ubuntu Forums have not been much help – surprisingly.
That’s not a definition of “relative URL” I’ve ever heard before, but that’s ok. Usually, the term refers to hrefs with relative path information eg: /images/pic.png rather than http://yourdomain.tld/images/pic.png
Sounds like your server is thrashing on that WP installation. Since you’re getting enough of <head> to include <title>, but style.css never loads for you, my first place to look would be the plugins. Since other db driven apps are working, I would think your mysqld is ok.
Often, these sorts of application specific, but on one host errors are DNS related. Does the server have access to fast, reliable DNS lookups? This is necessary for logging, mostly, but some apps like to check hostnames.
