Getting Started Guide

I have just started with Vircadia.
I am finding it difficult to GetStarted.
Please point me to steps to host my domain server on localhost (Ubunto 20.04)

There seems to be so many components and I am not able to make headway
I have installed -
sudo apt-get install ./vircadia-server_2022.1.0-selene-20211126-aabcdea-0ubuntu1-1_amd64.deb

It is successful. Now I am confused on how to launch and host my domain server.

If the installation has been successful, just enable and start the domain server with the following commands:
systemctl enable vircadia-server@default.target
systemctl start vircadia-server@default.target
After that, you should be able to connect your domain administration web interface at http://localhost:40100. Then, you should register an account and your domain to vircadia Metaverse - refer to docu here:
https://docs.vircadia.com/host/configure-settings/place-setting.html
Finally, you can start the Vircadia Player, login to metaverse and visit your domain via Explore → http://localhost:40102.

Second step is not working for me.
Explore → [http://localhost:40102 ](http://localhost:40102
I am getting error " Site cannot be reached" - localhost refused connection
Is there any other steps required? How I can debug the problem

Sounds like you have a firewall problem… try following this firewall guide. How to setup your firewall on Ubuntu

Thanks
Open all the ports as suggested. Still explore is not working http://localhost:40102

Also checked netstat -pltan
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:40100 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN -
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:40100 127.0.0.1:47218 ESTABLISHED -

I didn’t see anyone listening on port 40102

I think this service is showing some critical error Can’t connect to Google DNS service via TCP, fall
But I am able to ping google.com corrrectly

sudo systemctl status vircadia-assignment-client@default.service

But, connection to the web interface on port 40100 ist working?
BTW: port 40102 is an UDP port, thus, opening as TCP port in the FW will not work.

Where I can look the debug logs.
I can share the logs to identify the issue and fix it

Today I did clean install of vircadia server on 20.04 as described above.
:400100/settings is done - it all worked correctly

Post that I tried to launch explorer
:400102 → I got same error connection refused

I checked this port is open with UDP and TCP on my system

Please help. I am completely stuck here
