# How to Verify You're Seeing the New Site ## The Issue You mentioned seeing the "old site" on localhost. Here's what's actually happening: ### Current Server Status - ✅ **Port 5000**: Your NEW SkyArtShop site (Node.js backend) - ❌ **Port 80**: NOTHING running (nginx and apache stopped) ## Why You Might See "Old Site" ### 1. Browser Cache Your browser is showing cached pages from before cleanup. **Solution:** - Press `Ctrl + Shift + Delete` - Select "Cached images and files" - Clear cache - Refresh page (`Ctrl + F5` for hard refresh) ### 2. Wrong URL You need to use the PORT in the URL. **Wrong:** `http://localhost/` ❌ **Correct:** `http://localhost:5000/` ✅ ### 3. Windows Port Forwarding If you're on Windows accessing the Linux server via RDP, Windows might have port forwarding configured. ## How to Test Right Now ### Test 1: From Linux Terminal ```bash curl -s http://localhost:5000/ | grep -o "[^<]*" ``` **Should show:** `Sky Art Shop` ### Test 2: Check What's Actually Running ```bash ./verify-localhost.sh ``` **Should show:** Only port 5000 active ### Test 3: Check Server Logs ```bash pm2 logs skyartshop --lines 20 ``` **Should show:** Serving from `/media/pts/Website/SkyArtShop/website/` ## Access Your New Site ### Correct URLs - **Homepage**: http://localhost:5000/ - **Admin Login**: http://localhost:5000/admin/login.html - **Admin Dashboard**: http://localhost:5000/admin/dashboard.html ### From Windows Browser If accessing from Windows: 1. Find your Linux server IP (run `ip addr` on Linux) 2. Use: `http://YOUR_LINUX_IP:5000/` 3. Example: `http://192.168.1.100:5000/` ## Verification Steps Run these commands to prove the new site is running: ```bash # Check server status pm2 status # Test homepage curl -s http://localhost:5000/home.html | grep "" # Test admin curl -s http://localhost:5000/admin/login.html | grep "<title>" # Verify no port 80 curl -I http://localhost/ 2>&1 | head -1 # Should show: "Failed to connect" or no response ``` ## Quick Fix ```bash # Clear any browser cache, then use the correct URL: http://localhost:5000/ # NOT http://localhost/ ``` ## Summary ✅ **Your new cleaned site IS running** ✅ **It's on port 5000, not port 80** ❌ **Port 80 is disabled (correct for development)** The "old site" you're seeing is probably: 1. Browser cache showing old pages 2. Accessing wrong URL (missing :5000) 3. Windows port forwarding if on remote desktop **Solution**: Use `http://localhost:5000/` and clear browser cache!
