Magento 2 Installation trouble

[y0y0]

Hello there,
I can not install magento 2.2.1 at my server-ip (not point to dns yet). I am running centos 7 with cwp (centos web panel), apache 2.4.9, php 7.0.24, mariadb 10.1.29. I already have tried at test environment with virtualbox, it worked perfect, even with nginx.

Now At this time at webserver, I have tried different methods without luck, like:

1.- fix permission to magento installation directory /home/username/public_html/

2.- with and without nginx

3.- installed by command line

4.- also I have read different topics, all those are about after install, I am stuck at installation procedure, It is suppose to see web installation wizard at http://server-ip/ (or http://server-ip/setup ) , however It does not show up, I just can see http test page.

5.- Also I have checked mod_rewrite and .htaccess and ServerName.

As far as I can see, In virtualbox server ip and shared ip are different and I used Nat-ed option. At server production server ip and shared ip are the same and I have not used Nat-ed.

Any advice?

Use http://domainname.tld instead http://<ip_address> , there domainname.tld is domain assigned to username

If your DNS is not ready yet, you can statically assign domainname.tld to IP using hosts file (/etc/hosts in Linux, or C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in Windows) at client side (on your PC, not on CWP)

Don't forget remove records in hosts file after DNS server setup
