Configure the Network Interface Binding

By default, the Jetty servlet engine and HTTP server used in Hub bind on the 0.0.0.0 network interface. For security reasons, this action may be restricted in some environments.

You can use the configure command to change the listen-address property for your YouTrack server. Execute this command on behalf of the same OS user that runs the YouTrack service. This command creates configuration files and folders. The YouTrack service user must have permission to access the files and folders that are created by this command.

To customize the network interface binding for a Docker image:

Stop the Hub docker container:
docker exec <containerId> stop
Run the configure command:
docker run --rm -it -v <path to conf directory>:/opt/hub/conf \ -v <path to logs directory>:/opt/hub/logs \ jetbrains/hub:<version> \ configure --listen-address=<new network interface address>
Start the Hub docker container:
docker start <containerId>
