Configuring (nsv)
1 point by mkrecny 5409 days ago | 2 comments
I have every intention of digging through the documentation in the near future. Right now I just want a quick fix on how to configure (nsv) in the way that one configures virual hosts with apache - to listen for http requests for a given domain rather than just localhost:8080. Thank you!

There are three things you need to do.

First, you have your site running on 74.207.249.155 but you have your DNS set up so that thehackedbrain.com goes to 66.252.1.36. This has nothing to do with Arc; you need to fix your DNS at your domain registrar or at whoever you've delegated your DNS service to.

Second, you need to change site-url* in news.arc so that it reads

  "http://thehackedbrain.com/"
Third as evanmurphy says you need to run nsv so that it's listening on port 80, which is the default HTTP port.

I think nsv takes the port as an argument. It defaults to 8080, but if you run (nsv 80) then it will serve on localhost:80. Do this on a VPS such as Linode or Slicehost, configure your domain name servers to point to that VPS, and then your site will be accessible on the web via that domain.
