First Login

Post by jd417 »

Hi all. I've installed ZM on a LinuxMint 21.3 OS following the installation guide for Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy). It appears to have installed OK as it says it's active in the terminal when I check it's status. The user guide then says to open a browser (Brave is my browser) & enter http://hostname-or-ip/zm which produces a page not found error. I assume this is because hostname or ip needs to be replaced by my hostname or ip. Not sure how I find either of these can anyone help please?Thanks in advance.

Edit. Novice error. Found it via hostname command in terminal.

... and at a push, you might find that no matter what you're called, or what your IP address is, "localhost" and "127.0.0.1" are always you ;)

That is always the danger with examples, knowing which bits are commentary, and which bits are literal. e.g. /path/to/your/files ... "No such directory '/path' ..."
