Cloned Wordpress ct - no server?

[golfbravo]

I built a lamp stack ct and it ran as expected. I ran some maintenace tasks, added standard items to WP.

I then cleared out the ssh host keys and cleared the machine ID, and converted the ct to a template.

The clone of the template (i checked machine-id and rebuilt the ssh host keys).
I can ssh into the ct, but when accessing the IP in a browser, after a long pause I get a link 'Skip to main content' which is a link to IP/#brx-content followed by "Nothing found."

All the configs look good, and apache and mysql are running.

I'd appreciate any thoughts.


PS After some digging, I have observed that before the failure message in the cloned ct, the page cycles to the IP that was assigned to the ct template during setup and before conversion to the template. That seems very odd as WP should run on any IP. (the IP on the template was .207 and the webserver is .208

This looks to me as an application configuration issue with WP. Do static files load correctly (i.e. /robots.txt)?

Set the cloned VM to the old ip and reboot.

Thanks, I did try that and get a "noting found' message in the browser.

The server IS running - I can run a phpinfo program from the browser and get the comprehansive report - which gives the correct IP.

I cannot fathom how, or where, the old IP can be stored and available to server in the cloned ct.

Cheers
