Hi @Aniket524 ,

Yes, you can run the Horilla HRMS application on different ports. Here's how you can do it:

Using Django's Built-in Development Server

1. Specify the Port:
   When starting the development server, you can specify the desired port.

   python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:<desired_port>

   For example, to run it on port 8080:

   python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8080

2. Default Port:
   If no port is specified, Django runs on port 8000 by default.

Using a Production Web Server

If you're running the application in production using Gunicorn, uWSGI, or another WSGI server, you can configure the port in the respective server's configuration.

For example, with Gunicorn:

gunicorn horilla.wsgi:application --bind 0.0.0.0:<desired_port>

Considerations

• Ensure the port you choose is not already in use by another application.
• Update your firewall settings if necessary to allow traffic on the new port.
• If using a reverse proxy (e.g., NGINX or Apache), make sure it’s configured to forward traffic to the correct port.

Let us know if you need further guidance on setting up the application!
