[opencms-dev] Cannot login from outside server

[Gerd Schrick]

I guess your new site's URL should be
http://opencms.company.com:8081
instead of
http://localhost:8081

Please check in "Launchpad" -> "Websites"
I assume the Demo site's URL is already http://opencms.company.com:8080 in your case
Check also "Server URL" (http://opencms.company.com:8080) in "Global configuration" (Gear wheel on top)

I assume you've also configured the appropriate tomcat connector for port 8081?

The same configuration is working here (Demo site :8080 + two other sites on :8081 and :8082)

Best,
Gerd
