[Solder] Need help setting up

[TomScheeper]

Hey guys

 

 

I've recently been working on making my own modpack. I've found about Solder and I started setting it up. It all worked, until I got to the point when I entered the Solder URL on the technic site. I entered localhost (and 127.0.0.1 aswell)  and it ended with /api/ but it gave me the error. Does it give me this error because I need to have a domain instead of localhost? How can I set that up? Can I use no-ip.org for this and how do I need to set this up?

 

Thanks in advance.

localhost/127.0.0.1 is known as your local loop-back address. This is what your computer can use to talk to itself over the network. If you want people on the outside world to be able to talk to your Solder installation you will need to port-forward to your HTTP service in your router and use something like no-ip to have a static address that can be used in the Technic Platform.
