I was setting up the web server, certificates etc.. and when I rebooted and try to acces the localhost I get the following.
"It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet."
How can I restablish the Dashboard?

Hi,
You are certain that you're using https://serveripaddress/ to access the server's web interface?
-
Yes I am in the default IP that is assigned by my router (DHCP), It has not changed since I started the install...
I was in the dashboard to configure the web server, I just followed all the steps and rebooted.
Can it be reset?

Hi timm,
Please take a close look, Sam has put o bold "s" in https://
You are probably trying to access http:// instead of https://
Please check again. I've also set up the webserver and it works side by side with Zentyal admin interface.
Cheers.

yah, I saw that.. and had already made sure it was correct.
https://localhost/
I'm still stuck unless someone can help, sure would appreciate it, otherwise for me it's a do over on the install,
FYI- I really like this web interface and being able to manage everything from one place... :)

Did you enable the SSL listening port in the webserver configuration perhaps?
In my configuration, it is disabled.
If so, we have to find a way to adjust the configuration as you haven't got access to the web interface.
I do some things with the help from WinSCP from another system, it lets you edit the config files in a convenient way.
Another alternative would be Putty.
Cheers.

OK, I think I'm confused. :-\
Starting back up at the top:
I was setting up the web server, certificates etc.. and when I rebooted and try to acces the localhost I get the following.
"It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet."
That suggests the possibility of an attempt to access Zentyal from a second machine, not an attempt to access Zentyal as localhost (since Firefox automatically opens to the correct address, normally). This is what I would normally see if I went to http://myserverip/ and had added no content for the Zentyal web server module to dispaly.
If that's the case, you need to type in not https://localhost/ on that second machine, but https://yourserverip/. So, for example, if your server's local address was 192.168.1.1, you would type https://192.168.1.1/ to access the Zentyal web interface.
Accessing the Zentyal machine directly, with an attached mouse, keyboard, and display, accesses not the web interface but the Zentyal desktop, which can give you access to the web interface via localhost.
I'm probably just misunderstanding something, but in no case that I'm aware of should https://localhost/ give you the "It works!" message.
