difficulty using insight to log in to VirtualBox omero
Posted: Sun Apr 08, 2012 11:42 pmHi,
I'm having difficulty using omero.insight to log into my virtual box omero server. I've read through the relevant instructions on the site:
http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/prod ... _appliance
and various forum posts but I still can't get it to work. here's the details:
I'm running virtualBox 4.1.12 on OS X 10.7.2. I'm able to load the virtual appliance and I can log in to omero inside the virtual box (with root/swordfish or omero/omero) just fine. When I try to login with omero.insight (using "root"/"omero") i get the "failed to log onto omero, check the port or try again later error".
in the virtual box, when I run ifconfig, I do get an eth0 listing with the inet adds: 10.0.2.15 and I've attached a screenshot of the rest of the output here:
for what it's worth, I AM able to ssh into the omero server from the terminal on my host machine using the command: "ssh -p 2222 root@localhost"
also, when I run "sudo lsof -i -P" in the host terminal I do see that virtual box is indeed listening on ports 4064, 4063, 4080 and 2222 as specified in the VirtualBox settings, and no other applications seem to be listening on the same port to cause conflict (no omero.server for instance).
I've tried restarting the virtual box and the host a number of times and I even tried changing the listening port on the host machine to 46064... but still nothing.
any help would be greatly appreciated!
