Hello, I managed to setup my test app (NODE/Express) on http://178.128.173.30/ but I can access it through http:// only when app.listen(80);
I have opened few other ports in console with sudo ufw allow but none of them working. Am I missing something?
Current sudo ufw status below:
| To | Action | From |
|---|---|---|
| 22 | LIMIT | Anywhere |
| 80 | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 443 | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| Nginx HTTP | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 50/tcp | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 50 | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 80/tcp | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 21/tcp | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 500:600/tcp | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 500:600/udp | ALLOW | Anywhere |
| 22 (v6) | LIMIT | Anywhere (v6) |
| 80 (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 443 (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| Nginx HTTP (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 50/tcp (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 50 (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 80/tcp (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 21/tcp (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 500:600/tcp (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |
| 500:600/udp (v6) | ALLOW | Anywhere (v6) |

But I don’t need Nginx - I use Express. As I wrote above I have set up server successfully. I can’t make app work on other port than 80.
I have read all those before posting here. Thx I will search somewhere else this is pointless :)
