W.r.t.
Your DNS gateway (and all the gateways above it) do not have an entry for
"DellDT", which is causing this problem ( for one thing, DellDT is not a
well-formed DNS name for your computer. That would be of the form blah.comor
blah.blah.com, etc. (or .org, .net, .co, etc) ).
If you are using the IP address given by the local router ( 192.168.1.109
), you need to run the ODK Aggregate installer and use that IP address as
the "Internet-visible IP address or DNS name" and then use that same IP
address in the ODK Collect server URL http://192.168.1.109/ODKAggregate ).
Currently, you will notice that when you use another computer to access the
Tomcat webserver on your computer, when you try to navigate to
http://192.168.1.109/ODKAggregate , that web browser will redirect to
http://DellDT/ODKAggregate, causing an unknown hostname error because of
the above problem.
If you are using explicit IP addresses, you should define a static IP
address for your server so that the value does not change.

Hi Mitch,
I have already implement the cases that you described before a few months
but i have read your post and I wondering for the following
i have use a static external IP (62.28.195.32:8080) redirects to
(192.168.191.229:8080)
when im outside everythings works fine
- Collect using 62.28.195.32:8080 works fine but
- Aggregate using 62.28.195.32:8080 works fine
but when i'm on local network
- Collect using 192.168.1.109:8080 works fine but
- Aggregate using 192.168.1.109:8080 tries to redirect you
to 62.28.195.32:8080 ... ??? and only from my server works fine ?
It is not such a big problem because the main issue is for collectors to
works in a local network, but i have this question that i'm trying to
figure out.
Thanks in advance

If the server is reachable via the global http://62.28.195.32:8080/ then
the redirection when you are on your local network to that address should
also be fine -- it should resolve back to the address as it is known
locally (the local LAN address 192.168... ). If the global address does
not work when you are on the local network, then there is something not
quite right with the network (router) setup. Unfortunately, I don't know
enough about the variety of network setups to suggest how this could be
broken.
The reason for the redirection is that if you were to set up an SSL
certificate for your server, the certificate is very particular about the
name of the server -- they generally do not support aliases. To deal with
having a global address (your DNS hostname if you have one) and a local
alias (192.168...), the server ensures that all traffic is redirected to
use the hostname specified when you ran the ODK Aggregate installer. In
this case, you didn't specify a DNS hostname, but instead used your raw
global IP address (62.68...), and so it is redirecting to that address.
