  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

hi there!

i'm running a zabbix docker container, managed by plex. "everything worked fine" till someday i wasn't able to logon to the webfrontend, resulting in a "Unable to connect" from the browser.

i've checked telnet from my desktop pc on that port and it resulted in a connection refused

$ telnet xxx 38080 Trying xx.xx.194.3... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused $

however, on the hosting vserver, using localhost, everything works fine

$ curl http://127.0.0.1:38080 | grep "Zabbix docker" % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 3553 100 3553 0 0 27976 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 27976 <title>Zabbix docker: Zabbix</title> <body lang="en"><div class="wrapper"><main><div class="server-name">Zabbix docker</div><div class="signin-container"><div class="signin-logo"><div class="zabbix-logo"></div></div><form method="post" action="index.php" accept-charset="utf-8" aria-label="Sign in"><ul><li><label for="name">Username</label><input type="text" id="name" name="name" value="" maxlength="255" autofocus="autofocus"></li><li><label for="password">Password</label><input type="password" id="password" name="password" value="" maxlength="255"></li><li><input type="checkbox" id="autologin" name="autologin" value="1" class="checkbox-radio" checked="checked"><label for="autologin"><span></span>Remember me for 30 days</label></li><li><button type="submit" id="enter" name="enter" value="Sign in">Sign in</button></li></ul></form></div><div class="signin-links"><a target="_blank" class="grey link-alt" href="https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/5.0/">Help</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;<a target="_blank" class="grey link-alt" href="https://www.zabbix.com/support">Support</a></div></main><footer role="contentinfo">&copy; 2001&ndash;2020, <a class="grey link-alt" target="_blank" href="https://www.zabbix.com/">Zabbix SIA</a></footer></div></body> $

on the vserver using the external ip and not localhost i'm getting the same connection refused

so, looks like a iptables right?
i'm using the plesk firewall and i've setup a rule (Allow incoming from all on port 38080/tcp)

in iptables it looks like this

# iptables -L INPUT -v Chain INPUT (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination [...] 231 12120 ACCEPT tcp -- any any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:38080


but that didn't fixed it.

i've also check fail2ban and disabled it for a second, but that didn't fixed it either.

anything i've missed here?

thanks

chester!
