Had apache working, then set up vsftpd, now apache is refusing my connections

beetle_boy66 · 01-21-2006, 03:59 AM

Let me start by declaring I am a big-time Linux newbie.

I am an amateur self-taught Perl programmer, and I have written several Perl scripts that I use at work to format troubleshooting test results into a format that is convenient to paste into tech support toubleshooting notes.

I have been using Lycos/Tripod's public cgi hosting services to host my scripts, but have recently had need to make use of Perl libraries that Tripod won't allow to execute on their servers.

So, I built myself a simple Linux based PC so I could host the scripts myself and run whatever Perl libraries I wish.

I downloaded Fedora Core 4, installed it on the PC I built, managed to get Apache up and running, and was able to sucessfully call and execute my Perl scripts over the web from work. All fine and dandy.

Then I decided to get fancy and set up vsftpd so I could modify my scripts and my html remotely from work. This is where my problems began.

Now before y'all rip me apart, remember I am a newbie to Linux..

I set up two users:
a user with a home directory of /var/www/cgi-bin/foobar,
a user with a home directory of /var/www/html/foobar

After I set up these two users, I chroot'ed them to their home directories.

At this point I discovered that Apache would no longer serve any web documents, telling me that "The connection was refused while attempting to connect to..."

At this point I got desperate and stupid and in a fit of ignorance, deleted the users I created and changed all the file ownerships and file permissions back to what I thought they should be.

I went on a Google frenzy looking for information of how to correct the problem, and tried several solutions, changing file permissions and ownerships like a wild man, but I still can't get Apatche to serve any documents. Now it's messed up so bad I don't have a CLUE what they need to be to fix the issue with Apache.

What should the /var/www directories have set for file permissions, and what should the /var/www file ownerships be set to, and what group and owner should Apache be set to in order to allow Apache to operate again?

I have tried to telnet to "localhost 80", connection refused.
I have tried to browse to localhost and 127.0.0.1, connection refused.

I know I did something stupid (feel free to tell me so..) but how can I fix it?

Post your logs please. The logs are normally in /var/log/apache or /var/log/httpd.

You should not use terlnet, but SSH v2 as telent has huge security risks.

My feeling is that the chrooting is what caused the problem. How did you exactly "chroot" the users to their homedirectories? More information is needed on exactly what file premissions you used, etc.

I wasn't trying to access the web server via telnet, I was just using the connection to test whether or not Apache was up and running. My test verified that it was indeed running, and it wasn't accepting users from port 23 either. And I was on the host machine... is there a sequrity risk using telnet from localhost?

I attempted to "jail" the two users I created into their home directories by adding the lines below to the vsftp.conf file:

code snippet:
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list

vsftpd.chroot_list:
watts_cgi
watts_html

I set up two users:
a user with a home directory of /var/www/cgi-bin/watts.9,
a user with a home directory of /var/www/html

And when I created the users, those directories got their ownership changed so they owned the directories serving as their home directories

If you're getting connection refused when telneting to port 80, then chances are that Apache has stopped running. Try doing "service httpd restart" and see if it starts up OK.

That was all it was! All the time and energy I spent... And Apache wasn't even running..

I'm not sure how the service got turned off, but I turned it back on in the Gnome based services panel, and now it's up and running again.

Thanks!
