In SchoolTool 2008.4, a newly installed SchoolTool server is not accessible over the network by default. Additional steps to make it accessible from other computers are listed below. We will probably change this behavior in future releases to be more consistent with people’s expectations.
Edit /etc/schooltool/schooltool-2008/paste.ini as root. For example:
sudo nano /etc/schooltool/schooltool-2008/paste.ini
Change the host = line to read:
host = 0.0.0.0
You will then need to restart SchoolTool following the instructions in Initial Setup Process
This is primarily useful while configuring and testing a server before going live, or when SchoolTool is being run on a laptop or desktop PC and only accessed on that machine.
Edit the paste.ini file as described above, setting it to read:
host = 127.0.0.1
