Selfhosted @lemmy.world mariah @feddit.rocks 1y ago How to change searx ip? I want to the ip to my local ip instead of 127.0.0.1
When a service is running on 127.0.0.1 it usually wants a web server software as proxy. https://searx.github.io/searx/admin/installation-nginx.html
127.0.0.1 is actually the most local IP you can connect to, as it will always connect to the device you are on. ;) Can't get any more local than that.Sorry, not helping, I know.
You should be able to use either without any changes. If you have a problem connecting from another system then it's likely a firewall issue.
Is your local IP a private, or public IP?Does it start with 192, for example?How are you determining your local IP?

Caddyserver is nice and easy as well.
