I am running two websites through a VPS using apache virtualhost. The first website is working. When I try to access the second website on Firefox or Chrome I keep getting the error: The connection has timed out
.
I added the following line to my iptables:
-A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
and port 80
was open yesterday and today it says it is closed. Either way my first website still works so I am not sure if this is the problem.
My iptables config is:
:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 10000 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 2234 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
-A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited COMMIT
When I run the dig
command it correctly points the A record to my VPS IP address.
What could be the problem here? I can't see what I am doing wrong.
Update: I tried hashing as recommended, that did not work. How can I check to see port 80 is open for both sites? I thought once port 80
is open, anything can connect to it?
Best Answer
you have defined
port 80
twice with two different rule-sets? there could be a conflict due to this? can you check byhashing
one of them?
