Can't reach the Hestia Control Panel After Installing on Google Cloud

I followed the Ideaspot tutorial to install Hestia on GCP E2 Micro and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Minimal

Installation command used:

bash hst-install.sh --interactive no --email [email protected] --password exampledemopassword --hostname hcp.example.com -f

I had to change the port, so i did that to 5555 and also created a Firewall rule for the same.

v-change-sys-port 5555

After I checked the states by running:

v-list-sys-services

it gives this response:

root@hcp:~# v-list-sys-services

From it looks it is working but I can’t access the admin panel at https://hcp.example.com:5555

But the domain is working. Because if I just paste and https://hcp.example.com in the browser then I get the coming soon page like as shown below. It just not working with the admin panel.

Can you please suggest what’s going on here.

Thank you.

Sorry for the above post … I have fixed it now. Turns out I missed one setting in creating the firewall rule.

After selecting “All instances in the network” in Targets fields, it worked. Can’t believe I wated more than 2 hours and 4 times creating the VM again and again :frowning:
