Dear Team,
I would like to know how to load a website using the IP address. I have not bought the domain yet and until I do so, I would like to setup the website using the IP address. How can I do this? When I load the IP address, the Default.domain - coming soon page appears.

Any help?

You must create a domain in the VestaCP
and then you can change your computer hosts file

Code: Select all

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\drivers\etc\hosts
add this

Code: Select all

server_ip    www.yoursite.ru
server_ip    yoursite.ru
after that run the command

Code: Select all

ipconfig /flushdns
(start/run) on your windows os

I hope you understand me

Alternately if your server has more than 1 IP you can assign that domain to another IP and visit it that way.
