Resolved Nginx can't bind to 192.168.1.1:80....

[apaunovski]

So, my Plesk server has 2 IP's...

One external and shared - 95.xxxxxxxxxx
One internal for communication with the backup server - 192.168.1.1

Today I tried to change NGINX configuration for a website and I get an error - "Nginx failed to bind to IP 192.168.1.1:80"...

Why is Nginx trying to bind to that internal IP at all?

I use it to connect my Plesk server to my backup server... It's not for the world and website serving.

How do I solve that? What do I do?

Here is the exact error message


Invalid nginx configuration: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 192.168.1.1:80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address) nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failedUnable to use the current nginx configuration file and to rollback to the previous version of the file because they both contain invalid configuration.

Nevermind... Problem solved!

It was an issue with the network interface itself.

The issue has been resolved, but I have to make a few contributions. I tried it too, but I got an error on some pages, especially the 192.168.1.1 page was quite challenging for me. The interface on my modem is quite troublesome, so I found this page by following topics like you. 192.168.1.1 is difficult for Ngix but I was able to solve this by assigning a NAT page. If you take a careful look at the admin login page, you will be able to recognize all I have said very easily. thanks for your support
