I can't help you there because I don't use the Google cloud. But 104.155.16.89 
and 127.0.0.1 are likely to be addresses exposed by different interfaces. You 
really need to serve Moin on 104.155.16.89 because it is accessible by the 
external interface.

Maybe you could route traffic between the interfaces, but that isn't how most 
people would solve this. Indeed, it's possible that the internal loopback 
interface (responsible for 127.0.0.1) isn't even participating in the general 
routing rules. (At least that's what I see when I run "/sbin/route -n".)

Didn't the --host option work?

P.S. I don't even use Moin 2, so I just have the documentation to work with, 
and I honestly can't really justify the time to dig into that documentation or 
the code any deeper.
