we have IIS 7.5 on server machine.
All websites can be access locally (80 and 8081 port as well)
However, only port 80 website can be accessed remotely. But the website on 8081 cannot be accessed remotely.
What is wrong?
That is because you have firewall turned on for non standard ports (even if HTTP protocol is used and HTTP is enabled in firewall app/feature settings because it defaults to port 80).
To enable remote port 8018 access: under firewall.cpl -> Advanced settings -> Inbound rules add new rule for port 8081, TCP

I'm trying to create an express server using node.js but when I start the server on port 80 my friends can't use it. I can select any other port and it will work, but when I try port 80 it doesn't work. I'm using https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and https://portchecker.co/check to check if the port is openned, I tried with 3000 and it work perfectly, but I need to get it working in port 80. I have already disabled my firewall and setup my DMZ host in the router.
I believe you are using windows as OS. In it the port 80 could be used as default port for some service. Please check the following -
Skype uses port 80 by default, you can change this in skype options > advanced > connection - and uncheck "use port 80"
Port 80 is the standard HTTP port, so to check which services are using you could run net stop http. It will list the services using port 80 and will ask to whether end them or not.
Port 80 could be occupied by IIS server. Please stop IIS and then re-run the node service.
Some SQL Server Reporting services also use port 80
I've trying to run my nodejs/expressjs application on my godaddy server, but any port I use times out. I've tried using the application on my local device and it works fine. I have a snippet of my connection below.
var app = express();
app.listen(8080, function() {
console.log("Listening on port " + 8080);
});
When I run the program through ssh, I get no errors
node index.js
Listening on port 8080
But when I go to the corresponding location in my browser, I get:
xxx took too long to respond.
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
I'm pretty sure it has to do with running on the godaddy server. If anyone has experience using this service with nodejs, is there a specific port I should be using, or is there any other setup I should do?
Do you have a VPS with GoDaddy right? So I assume you have also root access.
SSH into your GoDaddy server as root and check if the node.js app actually listens on that port:
netstat -tunlp | grep 8080
If you see any result there for the node.js app and that port then the port is open.
By default, there should be a firewall on your server which might block most of the ports and allows only the necessary incoming traffic.
You can check if there is any rule for that port by issuing the command bellow:
iptables -nvL | grep 8080
If any result is returned, then you have to add an iptables rule to allow access to that port. There are multiple methods to do that:
permit full access from your IP access to the server
permit your ip to access port 8080 on the godaddy server
permit outside world to access port 8080 on your server
You could read any iptables guy, it's pretty easy to add/edit/delete firewall rules. Most of the cPanel/WHM servers come with CSF Firewall (which is based on iptables and perl scripts).
In order to allow an ip address to your firewall (if you have CSF Firewall installed) you have to issue the following command:
csf -a ip-address
I hope that helps!
It is written that now CloudFlare supports 2087 as a port for Https
I have a domain lets say www.somethign.com and it is secure using CloudFlare
I run my node.js on a specific port.
If I choose a port 8080, which is a port allowed for http, and then i call my page like:
http://www.mydomaidnExample.com:8080/webhook
it works perfectly.
but when I set a port for https, such as 2087 and call it like
http://www.mydomadin.com:2087/webhook
i get this error
What should I do please ?
Note that this url
localhost:2087/webhook
is working on the server
Update
Firewall is already off
When using CloudFlare there are restrictions around which ports you connect through for security reasons, the 2087 port is reserved for SSL usage:
For requests made via HTTP:
80
8080
8880
2052
2082
2086
2095
For requests made via HTTPS:
443
2053
2083
2087
2096
8443
Therefore, when using Full SSL mode within CloudFlare and you connect over port 2087 the connection to the origin will be over SSL, if you want to disable this you can use a Page Rule to turn SSL to Flexible on that port.
I have website working fine on my local machine as host name hml.frontend in the hosts file: 127.0.0.1 hml.frontend
In IIS I have bindings as hml.frontend 127.0.0.1 and hml.frontend 192.168.1.94. The latter I used ipconfig to get my local ip address issued to me by my BT Home Hub 5 router.
In windows 10 firewall I have allowed App/Feature NetLogon service and World Wide Web services (HTTP).
In advanced settings in Inbound Rules I have added a rule which allow the connection from all sources to ports 80 and 443. Scope is any IP addresses.
On my macbook I have added the 192.168.1.94 as hml.frontend to the hosts file.
I can ping hml.frontend OK from the macbook.
However from a web browser the http://hml.frontend site cannot be reached from the macbook.
telnet 192.168.1.94 80 from the macbook says unable to connect to remote host.
Back on the PC I have done netstat -na to see which ports IIS is listening on and 127.0.0.1:80 is there and so is 192.168.1.94:139 and many more ports against that IP address but not port 80.
Any ideas what I can check to get my PC to listen for that website hostname on port 80?
I got it to work, I was on the right track that the IP address was not being listened to.
In order to add the ip address I have to be listened to, I went into cmd as adminstrator, did
netsh
http
show iplisten
'show' result shows that just 127.0.0.1 was being listened on port 80
add iplisten ipaddress=192.168.1.94
show iplisten
quit
'show' result shows that now additionally 192.168.1.94 is being listened on port 80
Then I went back in with
netstat -na
And now I see the line I want:
TCP 192.168.1.94:80 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
Some information was gained from this article.

The site is now reachable from my macbook using the hostname http://hml.frontend
My server has jboss on port 8080,
Now I wants Tomcat too,
In tomcat 7.0.34 i had made the following changes
<Connector port="8010" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
redirectPort="8443" />
Now while I accessing the application from server local host it works fine..
But I was not able to access from Client side
Note:I had open the port 8010 from server amazon ec2
Make sure the Windows firewall service is started. If this is disabled, you will have issues.
Next, go to Control Panels and edit the firewall settings to allow port 8010 and 8443. Test this by using Telnet 127.0.0.1 8010 and port 8443.
