Some of my websites running on my Ubuntu LAMP server are communicating with wan through ports different than 80. Usually, this is no problem.
But, if I use other ports than the standard 80 WP sites are only shown on WAN w/o graphic and with a very long rendering time. I've tested different ports - but the problem seems to be the same.
Joomla, as an opposite, is running smoothly using other ports than 80.
My question is: is this a bug or am I missing something in the config?
Thanks for any suggestions!
-------------------------------------------
Update, I found a thread which says that WP indeed has a bug.

Anyone who knows when it will be updated?
I think it's an issue with your network or server. I've run a number of local installs using anything but port 80 and never had a problem.
esmi,
thanks for your quick reply! why do you think it's problem with my server as long as I host other cms websites w/o any rendering problems?
thanks for any suggestions
Primarily because I've never come across a port problem but also because every time I've seen a situation where the site (eventually) renders without graphics, it's been a domain/url issue.
okay, thanks again for answering.
Do you know any links which describes more about the possible url issue?
...one more thing - if domain/url issue; do you have a suggestion for how a .htaccess file would look like to pass this problem?
This is my .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
You've got 2 rewrite blocks in there. Try just using:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Have to look into the url issue..... Do you know any pages with more info about the possible url issue?
