freenet cannot connect to 127.0.0.1:888

mianka · 2012-01-09 08:51:08

I installed freenet as per wiki, added it to deamons in rc.conf and it shows up when I do "rc.d list".
Nevertheless it keeps me saying that it can not connect to 127.0.0.1:8888 : "server refuses connection to 127.0.0.1"
The same question was asked before,but got no answer (109878).

This is my /etc/hosts/ if it can help

#
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#

#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost imac2
::1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.2 imac2.justus.flv imac2
192.168.1.3 pomme.justus.flv pomme
# End of file

Thank you

Do you have a firewall, or iptables rules? It works here with Freenet0.7.5 Build #1405.

None of these.

I use freenet from the AUR.I t has worked for a short while, but after the next start it did'nt work anymore.

Maybe you can try with the official freenet download; that's what I have since at the time I tried the AUR package it didn't work for me. It's very easy to install, just unpack anywhere and run ./run.sh. (It won't actually install anything.)

you can try "nmap localhost -p 8888" (you need nmap for it)

if the port is open, you should be able to connect. if it's closed, the daemon is not running correctly (or at all). if it's filtered, then some firewall is blocking you

"rc.d list" gives me [STARTED][AUTO] freenet (started and auto in white text).
"nmap localhost -p 8888" gives me:

I'm also having trouble with freenet.

Starting Nmap 5.51 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2012-01-22 14:02

Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)

I'm using arno-iptables-firewall, but admittedly don't have a clue which line in firewall.conf to edit to sort this out.
