I was just about to send a "me too" and then realized it was a DNS issue...

if you're not going to go through the trouble of DNS setup (like I
didn't, since I'm only running IXP Manager and my route servers on a
local mgmt LAN), you will need to modify the /etc/hosts file of the
IXP Manager server, and whatever machine you're trying to access the
route server's lighttpd from for testing. Just hitting the the route
server's IP in a browser on port 80 throws a 500 error because it's
looking for a hostname in the HTTP header. If you modify your hosts
file and then hit the proper DNS that matches the .env file you made
during setup, it works perfectly.
