can't login via :2086,2087

[foxpiles]

i installed cPanel on fedora core4 fresh server, just to try out. but i always get 'The page cannot be displayed' when try to access the page http://my-ip-address:2086, https://my-ip-address:2087

the address http://my-ip-address show cpanel page said 'There is no website configured at this address.'

i have restart the server, restart cpanel, and flush iptables. nothing seem to help

i have not installed firewall for fedora and i turned off all firewall at my pc

netstat show ports 2086,2087 status LISTEN

then when i run cpanel status it say
"cpsrvd (pid 19768) is running...
entropychat (pid 26227) is running...
melange (pid 26229) is running...
stunnel is stopped
interchange is stopped
qrunner is stopped" but i have no idea which is which



any further suggestions?

thanks in advance

firewalled?

Normally this is caused due to a firewall of some sort.

Is your firewall setup to allow those ports:

if your using APF - double check the thread over @ web host gear -

www.WebHostGear.com (rampage's thing)

This is an excellent resource -

http://www.webhostgear.com/index.php?art/id:61 is the link for how to install / setup APF

as written there:

Common ingress (inbound) ports
# Common ingress (inbound) TCP ports -3000_3500 = passive port range for Pure FTPD
IG_TCP_CPORTS="21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,2082,2083, 2086,2087, 2095, 2096,3000_3500"
#
# Common ingress (inbound) UDP ports
IG_UDP_CPORTS="53"

Common egress (outbound) ports
# Egress filtering [0 = Disabled / 1 = Enabled]
EGF="1"

# Common egress (outbound) TCP ports
EG_TCP_CPORTS="21,25,80,443,43,2089"
#
# Common egress (outbound) UDP ports
EG_UDP_CPORTS="20,21,53"

Suggestion if you do have a firewall in place - turn it off for a second or 2 and then try these ports -

if they work - then you know its a firewall issue:


One last thing ~

In SSH, type: service cpanel status

This will let you know if cpanel is up and running - if not then run

/etc/rc.d/init.d/cpanel restart

Let us know if you have any error msgs or such that follow'


Glad to help

thinks for you reply, but still i have a problem

i run # service cpanel status; and it show these line, this mean cpanel is running, right?
cpsrvd (pid 2256) is running...
entropychat (pid 8632) is running...
melange (pid 8634) is running...
stunnel is stopped
interchange is stopped
qrunner is stopped

i added rules to defult os firewall for port 2086,2087, doesn't work
i disable all firewall, doesn't work
i restart the server again, i restart cpanel service again, doesn't work...
and there's no other firewall installed

i try login from my remote pc to other server which use cpanel via port 2086 and have no problem, so...it's was't problem with firewall at my remote side.


i'm going mad with this now...
please, tell me what to

thanks you

Not sure if we are following you here?

when you logged into a remote PC - were you able to get in just fine?
but when you try from your own local PC you cannot?

If this is the case than it must be something local to you -

can you PM me the url to your cpanel and/or whm --- no passwords are needed just the url

i have an account for other web hosting service, they use cpanel on their server, too.
so i login to their server via port 2086 and it working just fine, but i can't access my own server via the same port.
this is just to test that my remote pc have no problem access port 2086


i'm already try /etc/rc.d/init.d/cpanel restart; for several times now and it start service just fine


to :hostmedic; i've already pm you



though i still have not slove my problem yet, but you guys are very great and have been answer to my question with patient, thanks you. don't bore of me yet.

 

[hostmedic]

looking @ it now

I am going to run nmap against the box to see if the ports are truely open...
gimme a few


command I am using for nmap if interested is: nmap -sW -O -p- -PI -PT 1.1.1.1 (where 1.1.1.1 is your ip address)

as I see now I cannot get to 2086 or 2087 either - so its either a firewall issue or something else ...

PM on its way in a few

 

[hostmedic]

can you

can you

ps aux | grep stunnel

and also

check /var/log/messages for any errors


you definetly have a firewall there that is rejecting our nmap requests...

 

[foxpiles]

i've try # ps aux | grep stunnel; it's say this
cpanel 8648 0.0 0.7 4052 1620 ? Ss 13:09 0:00 /usr/bin/stunnel-4.04local /usr/local/cpanel/etc/stunnel/default/stunnel.conf.run
root 10871 0.0 0.2 3764 668 pts/0 R+ 15:29 0:00 grep stunnel

check log message right now...

thanks

 

[hostmedic]

can you lynx it ?

in shell try


lynx http://127.0.0.1:2086

then use root / pass

does it work ?



///////////nm got your info to help ya ---

it works while on the box -- must be an iptables issue perhaps

are there any other firewalls above this box ?

 

[foxpiles]

i don't think so, no.

 

[hostmedic]

yuppers ... I think

well - when doing an strace
i find that the packets are bloced upstream - above you === I think that is the deal - that they are blocking many of these ports


i turned firewall backon before I left = change that password though

 

[cygnuzz]

I also have same problems with foxpiles, I did exactly the same step as foxpiles do, and with addition, disabled the SELinux function. But still I unable to access both of the URL. Have any clue?
