I have installed Canvas on Ubuntu Linux 18.04.
If I start the server as:
bundle exec rails server
by default it starts the development server
I am able to access Canvas on port 3000
HOWEVER
If I attempt to start the production server:
bundle exec rails server -e production
It starts fine...but am not able to open the login screen in my browser
I have tried binding the localhost IP address, the server's IP address...all to no avail.
Am not sure what the problem is...any thoughts?

Most here are cloud hosted.
For self hosting, you'll probably get an answer quicker if you ask in the #canvas-lms IRC Channel or ask the mailing list.
