Ubuntu Servers :: Error: Could Not Connect To Server
Feb 7, 2010
I have openssh installed and it works great right out of the box. However, I don't want people accessing everything on my machine. My machine is behind NAT and ufw firewall. I have configured both so that port 22 is open. I've added the new users I want to have limited access and assigned them to group "sambashare" (just because its convenient.)
When the bottom bit of my config file "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" is set as shown below, everything works great:
Quote:
#Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server
Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
UsePAM yes
Match Group sambashare
[code]...
Whenever I make the change to enable "ChrootDirectory" so that it limits the users access, I simply remove the # and it looks like this:
Quote:
#Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server
Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
UsePAM yes
Match Group sambashare
[code]...
However, thats when I start running into problems. When I try logging in with Filezilla; I am not able to connect and this is the response I get from Filezilla:
Quote:
Status: Connecting to ##.###.###.###...
Response: fzSftp started
Command: open "user@##.###.###.###" 22
[code]....

I am merely trying to change the port for my ssh server.However it isn't changing.I edited my ssh_config file to:
Code:
# This is the ssh client system-wide configuration file. See
# ssh_config(5) for more information. This file provides defaults for[code]...
When i try to connect to my server via port 443 i get a connection refused error. However when i try to connect via port 22 it connects. Since that didn't work, i tried restarting the entire server.To restate, i changed the config file and restarted ssh then the computer, however the port didn't change.Ohh and yes my router is set to port forwarding on port 443, though it doesn't matter since I'm inside the network.

I have FileZilla installed on this machine, and OpenSSH (with an open port 22) on another machine on my home network. When I try and connect, I get: Quote: Status:Connecting to 192.168.2.3... Response:fzSftp started Command: open "alphatwo@192.168.2.3" 22 Error:Connection refused Error:Could not connect to server
Which has left me puzzled as I have an open port. Does the username have to be defined somewhere? E.g. the machine acting as my SFTP server can be logged on to locally as alphatwo so that's what I logged in as (with the correct password). Is this correct? If so, does anyone have any ideas as to how I might rectify it? I want SFTP set up so I can copy PHP files from my laptop to /var/www/html/ on another PC (across the home network).

After the upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, all was well. But after the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, I lost the MySQL server. Now, I recall during the upgrade, I was asked if I wanted to keep the existing my.cnf file or replace it with a newer one. I did as suggested and kept the original as I had edited it before. The same question was asked with a couple other config files. I kept the original in each case. After the first step, I checked the server was running and the websites were up, all was well. After the update to 9.10, when I checked the server, I get the following error:
Code: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists! Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting this resolved?

I'm the lead Dev of GnackTrack and we're having issues with running MySQL on the LiveDVD.Once installed everything works fine, mysql can be connected to but when using the liveDVD we get the following error:
Code:
root@root:~# mysql
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
Contents of /etc/mysql/my.cf point to /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock but because this is a liveDVD the actual file is located in:
/rofs/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

I'm running fedora core 13. The problem is I've installed vsftpd and it works from the local machine but when I try to connect to the ftp server using another computer on my small home network I get the following error: "Windows cannot access this folder. Make sure you typed the filename correctly and that you have permission to access this folder. Details: A connection with the server could not be established."
I've gone through the common vstfp problems post but I'm still having problems. The server is pingable from the remote laptop I'm using. I've disabled selinux:
[Code].....
I also don't see a vsftpd.log file in /var/log.

In Gnome Places->Connect To Server dialog, I am having problem using the Custom Location Service Type. I enter in the URI as
Code:
smb://username:password@ipaddress/share_name
I get an pop up error message that says:
Quote:
Cannot Connect To Server. You must enter a name for the server.
Which would be fine if there was actually a place for me to enter the name which there is not. What am I doing wrong. This is the first time I have tried using the Connect To Server dialog. Normally I just use a script I wrote to mount my share in a folder on my local drive as some programs cannot access the mounted network folder. In a browser all I have to do is:
Code:
smb://ipaddress/share_name
I tried using Windows Shares, but that did not work either. It does work if I click on network and access the share that way, but some programs like firefox and a few others that I want to save a file to my network drive do not show the network unless the share is mounted in a folder. So, I wrote a script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#mount ext storage drive
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.2/files -o username="username",password="password" /mnt/files
This works and I can use this, but it would be handy if I could just use the Connect To Server dialog.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with a complete LAMP installation (for local developement purpose).
Everything is OK (I installed phpMyAdmin without problems) except for one big problem: php shows 500 server internal error instead of a complete error report.
I tried editing php.ini and in-script runtime configuration but nothing changed.

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2). I've had this problem to the point where I thought I messed up my actual configuration so bad that I reinstalled Ubuntu to get rid of all the MySQL configuration; I ran MySQL through Windows with a breeze, but I'm getting some errors like that after restarting my computer just a few minutes ago and I have not changed anything in my SQL settings. I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit and running MySQL 5.1. the actual error that I get from Navicat and from the website is at [URL]... Update: 20110402. Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. Just got that when I tried to log in to phpmyadmin.

My school are cutting costs.I suggested they go open source.They said if I could find out how then they would consider it.Basically they want a mixture of windows and ubuntu clients.What I would like to no is how a ubuntu machine can connect to a server (SAMBA I think) so that it can access our home folder like the windows machines do.

Does anyone know, or have any experience with, what the best way to set a network interface on a linux server to be up - so that virtual machines can bridge through the physical interface, but not allow anyone on a network to connect to the server itself? Thank you

I just set up my first server in my home with Ubuntu Server Edition, and I'm in the process of installing Jinzora on it. However, I cannot access the server through my web browser like I believe I should.Is it not just URL...?I am very much a server newbie, do I need to install another application to view my server in a web browser? I am able to connect through SSH just fine.

I've tried /etc/init.d/mysql start, and it actually starts, or at least, it doesn't error out. But when I do pgrep mysql I get nothing, and when I try to login with mysql -p as root, I get
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
None of my other logins work, either, but since pgrep mysql didn't work, it's clear that MySQL just isn't running. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling mysql-server via apt-get, but I get the same thing. The logs in /var/log/syslog show this:
Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: #007/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server

I have an e-mail production server that has been running fine for almost two years.
Notice mail was not serving today and login to a bunch of errors in messages
However, I think they are all from not being able to access MySQL and when I:
mysql -u root -p
I get:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)

I just made a Ubuntu Server install in a virtual machine and am having trouble setting up FTP to transfer files. I've installed LAMP and vsftp. The web server works great, but FTP gives a connection refused error locally and remotely from the host machine. 'Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".' nmap localhost doesn't list FTP as open even though I have vsftpd set to listen. I've tried restarting vsftpd with no luck.

I have a virtual private server that I am trying to connect to using x11vnc. I ran this through ssh to setup gnome
sudo apt-get install gnome-core
sudo apt-get install gdm
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
I later ran sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to see if that would help.
Code:
#cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

Code:
#sudo startx
Fatal server error:
xf860OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)
I assume this is because it probably doesn't have a video card.

I followed this tutorial:
http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-us...l-ubuntu-10.04
Minus the Quota for the mailboxes, since I don't really care about that. But I don't think that should cause any problems in the configuration.
The server is in my local network.
I tried to connect with Thunderbird and Kmail. Kmal brings up an error message eventually, saying something about a time-out.
Squirrelmail says code...
I searched everything & everywhere only to see that more people have that same error message come up with Squirrelmail. From my understanding some have fixed the issue but I couldn't actually find a solution to this.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
