[SOLVED] Unable to access GUI

[goonerish]

Hi,

I installed proxmox 7 on my home server machine (poweredge T410). Installation went fine, with default configurations, but I have trouble accessing the web UI from my Mac and Windows machines.

Curl from Mac returns:

curl -v -GET https://192.168.2.5:8006
*   Trying 192.168.2.5...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connection failed
* connect to 192.168.2.5 port 8006 failed: Connection refused
* Failed to connect to 192.168.2.5 port 8006: Connection refused
* Closing connection 0
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 192.168.2.5 port 8006: Connection refused

curl on host to https://localhost:8006 returns expected response

On host

netstat -tulpn |grep 8006
tcp6    0    0    :::8006        :::*        LISTEN 999/pveproxy

nmap

nmap -p 8006 192.168.2.5
Starting Nmap 7.91 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2021-07-28 15:28 EDT
Nmap scan report for 192.168.2.5
Host is up (0.012s latency).

PORT     STATE  SERVICE
8006/tcp closed wpl-analytics

Not sure what wpl-analytics is.

If i try to reach https://192.168.2.5:8006 from my mobile browser, it works every time. I can login and administer. But from either of the other OS, with different browsers, I cant connect.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

looks like only ipv6 is enabled....

I get this on my host

netstat -tulpn | grep 8006 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8006 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3088/pveproxy worke

I thought that didnt matter. With tcp6, it accepted both ipv4 and ipv6?

Changed the IP and it seems to have fixed the issue for me. The initial IP was also used by iDRAC on the server. I'm not sure if that was the cause, but now it works fine.
