I'm trying to setup LAMP to CentOS7 with a guide. I tried to run these commands to allow HTTP and HTTPS traffic:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=http
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=https
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
But system give this error:
FirewallD is not running
So I searched for it then apply these commands:
systemctl enable firewalld
systemctl start firewalld
Then it printed "completed" output but my connection was aborted and I cannot connect to the server with IP:Port with PuTTy anymore.
What should I do? The only access to the server was that way for me. I have no physical access to the server.
It looks like you locked yourself out, as you did not specify that ssh
should also be allowed:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=http
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=https
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=ssh
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
The guide above seems to assume that ssh
is already allowed.
What should I do? The only access to the server was that way for me. I have no physical access to the server.
So at this point the only way to access the server will typically be via the VM console of your hosting provider / virtualisation solution. Almost all providers will allow you access to that console, so you should try to do that. Once logged in via the console, you can then run the above command to allow SSH to regain access via SSH.
