netstat -tulpn

Please post the container config - PMG containers need a static IP set (DHCP does not work)

else - try running `pmgconfig sync`
and then rebooting the container

I hope this helps!

Hi,

It has a static IP already. I ran pmgconfig, then saw misconfigured DNS domain field. My Issue is resolved now, thanks for your help.

Code:
sudo pmgconfig sync
