Description:
Localhost does not resolve correctly and users see an ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE webpage.

How can I get the emails and notification to use our URL and not localhost?

Hi @chris.rainger

Thanks for using Bitnami Moodle!

We are currently aware of this and have a task to resolve it in our backlog. Could you please check out this thread, that covers a workaround to fix it in the meantime:

Error in Notification http://127.0.0.1/report/insights/insights.php

Hi, I had the same problem, you can fix it in the following way, change the host for your domain in your config.php files if (empty($_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’])) { $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] = ‘127.0.0.1:80’; }; if your domain is mysite.com. it should look like this if (empty($_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’])) { $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] = ‘mysite.com’; };

Best regards,
