Hi Lenno.

I’ve just been donated a Dell Optiplex 9020 SFF PC with Kubuntu already installed. After a bit of a system tidy-up and update to Kubuntu 26.04 LTS I’ve installed the SNAP option but am unable to get anything happening to be able to appear on [https://localhost:8080](https://localhost:8080) in Firefox.

Do you have any suggestions? Or should I just wipe the system and install the base version of Ubuntu.

When I run “ss -nltp”, all I get back is;

`State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port Process`  
`LISTEN 0 4096 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:*`  
`LISTEN 0 4096 127.0.0.53%lo:53 0.0.0.0:*`  
`LISTEN 0 4096 127.0.0.54:53 0.0.0.0:*`  
`LISTEN 0 32 192.168.122.1:53 0.0.0.0:*`  
`LISTEN 0 50 `_`:1716 :`_` users:(("kdeconnectd",pid=1809,fd=20))`  
`LISTEN 0 4096 [::1]:631 [::]:`

With no port 8080 evident.

Sorry for just poking into this conversation, I’m fairly fresh to Linux so still learning.

Regards, Antonio Benci
