What are you trying to do?

If you’re trying to get to the web UI on localhost, you would go to http://localhost:5001/webui in a browser.

Hello,

working on local is fine. but not working on live server

If you want to open up the API to listen on external interfaces so that you can access the node from other machines, you can update the Addresses.API section of .ipfs/config to

  "Addresses": {
    "API": "/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/5001",

However, opening up the API to the internet is not recommended because opening up the API to the internet is a security problem.

if you would like to access your ipfs node remotely and add files to it from anywhere, consider an IPFS uploader or an IPFS discord bot. here is a project doing that through discord chats.
