seems your VM either lacks default gateway or DNS resolver setting.

Yes was missing a dns address thanks for the tip now however I get this error

  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package apache.

Any thoughts or list of what is and is not compatible?

Looks like the error message got trimmed, but seems that apache is not compatible with your installed version. Have you run opkg update?

Seems like the apache package is not yet ported to metarouter, or there’s some misconfiguration regarding architectures.

Maybe you can try with other web servers, are you by chance trying to set up a LAMP stack? Maybe you can get some ideas here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/lamp
