[Toaster] Toaster only starts in local (master branch)

[Reyna, David]

Hi David,

This is how I did it:

  $ source toaster start webport=0.0.0.0:8400

Toaster is now using the Django rule of opening ports to the outside world (instead of it being automatically shared as is was in the past), so we now have to explicitly set the “webport” value to do so.

The documentation is here:
  http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/toaster-manual/toaster-manual.html#setting-a-different-address

I have already told people that I for one would never have guessed that this is required to enable external access, so this needs some adjustment.

Hello,
I have setup a toaster instance on an aws server but can't reach it from my client machine. I have checked aws firewalls (everything's open) and the error seems to come from toaster itself. I have already set multiple instances on other servers with the jethro branch which I had no issues with.
Except being on the master branch, I updated ubuntu from 14.04 to 16.04.

I tried accessing toaster's content using
curl -L http://localhost:8000
and I get the desired content. Changing to the public IP didn't give any result.

Trying
sudo netstat -an | grep -E "8000"
I get:
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8000<http://127.0.0.1:8000>          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

Which shows it cannot be accessed from outside, any difference in the new settings in toaster that I should change?

Thanks,
David
