Hi Team,

We are frequently getting this error message , pop up in plesk panel

New configuration files for the Apache web server could not be created due to the following errors in the configuration templates: nginx: [emerg] bind() to [*:*:*:*:*:*]:443 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address) nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed. Detailed error descriptions have been emailed to you.

Its one of our IPv6 address and it been configured .

we have performed the nginx config test using nginx -t and test rest came out success and the nginx service as well looks good. But still we are getting this error message on the plesk panel very strange.

We have tried to rereadip from the plesk and no issues has been found to repair also we have check the nestat command to check the post 80 and 443 listening all looks good.

Also we have tried to bounce the nginx service and still no luck

We would like to know what is causing this error message on the plesk panel and how to fix it kindly advise

Try at CLI:

ip -6 addr add Your-IPv6 dev eth?? (for eth?? - Your Networkdivice name)

And check your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/eth??

Hi Martin.

Thanks a lot for your update !!!

We have found the work around , by just find the affected domain unable to bind the nginx and perform the plesk web repair to that particular domain
