nginx: [emerg] bind() to :80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)

[boggsy]

Hi Guys

I'm having a little bit problem for this server.

Previously we have updated the server to new IP and having error to start the nginx service.

We have removed the old IP setting:

# rm -rf /etc/nginx/conf.d/IP.conf
# rm -rf /etc/httpd/conf.d/IP.conf

But still nginx not able to start.

Besides that, there is no other application listening to port 80.

Please help us on this.

Thank you

Hi,

create back those files which you have removed:

# touch /etc/nginx/conf.d/IP.conf
# touch /etc/httpd/conf.d/IP.conf

httpd IP.conf content:

Code: Select all

Listen IP:8080
Listen IP:8443

nginx IP.conf content:

Code: Select all

server {
    listen       IP:80 default;
    server_name  _;
    #access_log  /var/log/nginx/IP.log main;
    location / {
        proxy_pass  http://IP:8080;
   }
}

And then restart httpd and nginx.
