Connection refused on one URL only

Posted on December 4, 2019

I haven’t made any changes to my code or droplet. Suddenly, I still can access my website on all URLs, except one, which gives a connection refused error. I can’t see anything in the access logs or the error logs.

Any thoughts on how to debug?

Hello,

I would recommend a couple of things:

  • Try following these steps here on how to troubleshoot common Nginx problems:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/how-to-troubleshoot-common-nginx-issues-on-linux-server?answer=56476

Feel free to share the output of the commands here in case that you are unsure how to proceed.

  • Check that your domain name is still active, you could run a DNS check via this tool here:

Make sure that your A record is pointing to your Droplet’s IP address.
