Ubuntu Server Port 80 not reachable/closed

I am running Ubuntu server 12.04 with Apache2.



My port 80 is not reachable and closed. Any idea how can I open it so I can access to my web admin?



I noticed that port 80 is reachable under LAN, but its not able to reach outside of LAN even I had done port forwarding.



What should I do?



Thanks.

  • How do you know your port is closed? Any result? Please include output of sudo iptables -L

  • I downloaded a software from portforward.com to check is my port is reachable or not. Then I got the result its close. Below is my result of iptables -L root@server:~# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

    What about sudo ufw allow 80?

  • @BharadwajRaju UFW generates IPtables rules, which would have shown up in user1343112's answer if it was enabled. Also, port 80 being reachable on the LAN is a very good sign that UFW is not blocking this.

To access webmin you have to use the port 10000 with https like this: https://localhost:10000/



Moreover if you want to change Apache port



Open /etc/apache2/ports.conf file, enter:



$ gksu gedit /etc/apache2/ports.conf


To make the server accept connections on both port 8010, enter:



Listen 8010


To make the server accept connections on both port 80 and port 8010, use:



Listen 80
Listen 8010


Now restart apache



sudo service apache2 restart


and try.

As mentioned Port 80 is reachable from LAN but from not WAN with configuration of port forwarding.



When you configure Port forwarding, you must to check that gateway routes are configured properly in server. While port forwarding you need to take care of this point, otherwise you will not able to access application, even you have configured port forwarding properly.
