Question SELinux blocks outbound connections for FTPS from Backup Manager

J.Wick

Regular Pleskian
Server operating system version
Rocky LInux 8.6
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.46 Update #1
What I'm about to discuss took me literally a full day of troubleshooting.

Last week I migrated Plesk and clients from Centos 7.9 to Rocky Linux 8.6.

Trying to set up the FTPS (Non-PASV) settings in Plesk Backup would not connect fully. The curl command the Plesk error suggested worked at the command line. I have my FTPS on a random port 2121.

I figured out how to enable to log the firewall and saw all the connections getting dropped.

I disabled SELinux, and everything worked.

I'd like to utilize as much security as possible.

How can I learn of these SELinux conflicts and make exceptions with Plesk?

It would be nice to have Plesk report these errors instead of having to burn a full day figuring it out.
