[ckan-dev] ckan Installation problem

Thu Jan 24 09:58:59 UTC 2013

Just to add, to configure port forwarding in Vagrant you simply need to add
to your Vagrantfile:

    config.vm.forward_port 80, 8080

This will forward the port 8080 into the host machine (Window) to port 80
into the guest (Ubuntu). You can check
http://docs.vagrantup.com/v1/docs/config/vm/forward_port.html for more info.
