When I run a server from my WSL environment, the browser or postman installed in Windows is unable to hit it. Chrome responds with localhost refused to connect but if I were to curl localhost:3000 from the linux command line it succeeds.
I tried adding a rule to allow tcp connections to localhost: in the windows defender firewall with advanced security app:
What is more perplexing is that this only happens occasionally! If I restart and restart the server, it seems okay... or not. I've tried a couple server-running applications to confirm that this isn't just an issue with the code that I am trying to run.

I have a development installation of Gatsby Doc site running on my EC2 server.
When I run the code on my dev machine it works and I can connect my browser to port 8000 and everything is ok..
On my server i check out my github code and
yarn install
npm run start.
Everything builds correctly and Gatsby it listening on port 8000
From my dev machine when I connect using
X.X.X.X:8000 in my browser i receive
Unable to connect
I have opened the port on 8000 in the firewall and I have tested that it works as expected using:
nc -lv 8000
on the server (where gatsby is going to run) and connect using telnet.
on the server i receive
Listening on [0.0.0.0] (family 0, port 8000)
Connection from 84.232.Y.Y 38552 received!
So it works.
When Gatsby is finished starting i see
You can now view gatsbyjs.org in the browser. ⠀ http://localhost:8000/
⠀
when i enter the web address and port i receive
Unable to connect
again. do I need to start Gatsby in another mode?

I found out.
I just added -H 0.0.0.0 to the start up command and everything works now.
I found a lot of material on this issue online, however I wasn't able to find a solution. Also majority of them are rather old (a few years) and things could have considerably changed meanwhile.
I have Docker Desktop Community v 2.3.0.3 running on my Windows machine and a simple container with Ubuntu and a Rails app running on localhost:5000 inside.
The container gets run using:
docker run -p 5000:5000 rails:6.0.3 foreman start
I would like to connect to the Rails app from my Windows host machine via browser, but connection gets refused.
The server is up and running:
> docker exec 3c167e206f60 wget localhost:5000
--2020-06-06 08:21:26-- http://localhost:5000/
Resolving localhost (localhost)... ::1, 127.0.0.1
Connecting to localhost (localhost)|::1|:5000... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Port forwarding doesn't seem to work correctly (run from WSL, but similarly from Windows via Chrome):
> wget localhost:5000
--2020-06-06 10:22:50-- http://localhost:5000/
Resolving localhost (localhost)... 127.0.0.1
Connecting to localhost (localhost)|127.0.0.1|:5000... failed: Connection refused.
It doesn't work when using container address instead of localhost, either:
> docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' 3c167e206f60
172.17.0.2
> wget 172.17.0.2:5000
--2020-06-06 10:29:02-- http://172.17.0.2:5000/
Connecting to 172.17.0.2:5000... failed: Resource temporarily unavailable.
Also (as probably expected), I don't see any docker related entry in ifconfig (from WSL) or ipconfig (from Windows) output.
I also tried docker run --net host parameter, which didn't help either.
I would ideally prefer a solution which doesn't require me to modify the Windows host setup (network setup, etc), to avoid the possibility of breaking other scenarios.
I've been struggling with this issue for several days. What worked for me was to:
Uninstall Docker Desktop
Turn off the Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform, and Windows Hypervisor Platform via the Turn Windows Features On and Off control panel module
Reboot
Turn on all features in #2
Re-install Docker Desktop
This seems to reset all of the HyperV virtual networking interfaces. It's possible that uninstalling Docker Desktop isn't necessary but since it relies on at least some of these features I felt it wisest to do a complete cycle.
I'm trying to set up my first XAMPP server. Most recent version of XAMPP, Catalina 10.15.3. XAMPP seems to run ok, I have Apache and mySQL on. Doesn't seem to work at localhost default, but I selected the option to run at localhost:8080 and when I visit that url I see the sample site.
BUT when I try to connect with Sequel Pro using host: 127.0.0.1, username root, port 8080 it thinks for a minute (vs. instant failure with no port specified) then times out. Have restarted my computer, but no luck. Any clues?
I have a PHP application running on homestead box. This application makes calls to another app that is running on glassfish on my localhost:8080.
When PHP application sends the request to localhost:8080, I am getting following error:
ConnectException in RequestException.php line 49:
cURL error 7: Failed to connect to localhost port 8080: Connection refused
Still I can make calls to localhost:8080 from web browser.Anyone has any suggestion?
Seeing how your application is running in Homestead (which by default is available on 192.168.10.10 and is forwarded to also be accessible on localhost:8000) your application running on Glassfish will not have access to it using localhost:8080. This is because localhost in your vagrant box (Homestead) is not actually the same localhost as on the host machine.
What you could do is grab the ip address from the host machine and connect to it from your application running in Homestead.
So here is how I could solve the problem. Vagrant is the guest machine running on my localhost as host machine. To access host from guest, you need to use gateway from VB.
I found this answer which helped me to access my application on localhost.
I am trying to run putty on Windows 7.
I need to run some SSH commands to upgrade Magento. Every time putty gives me this fatal error:
network error: connection refused
I have even tried to use it through winSCP. Note that putty is running fine on my client's side, but for me it's giving me that error every time.
I tried using port 22, 23 and a few others without success. I have also tried with Windows Firewall both enabled and disabled.
Thank you.
Install open-ssh or ssh in target Linux machine solved my problem .
Use below commands:
sudo apt install ssh
sudo systemctl status ssh
sudo systemctl enable ssh
The following are the list of possibilities of this error:
1) Common cause is - Your IP is blocked or not whitelisted in the server which can be done by editing the file at /etc/csf/csf.conf
2) Disable the windows firewall settings and check..
The above two things should work in most of the cases
3) This is very unusual and when the above two options fails it is very difficult to find the solution
In this case the traceroute to the server host or IP works usually but putty fails
port 22 looks normal and working but connection fails and restarting SSH (service ssh restart) also does not work
reboot or restart the server but still fails
Adding IP in firewalls or whitelisting the local IP may not workout
This case generally happens when the server is migrated or new server. IP of the old server might be whitelisted locally, but don't have port 22 open, or some other local filtering is occurring for this new IP but not the old server IP..
In this case you need to change the port to some 522 or 530 some unusual port will help in sorting it out.. The same port you have to use for the SFTP connection also .. where as FTP connections works normally..
or you have to whitelist the IP locally or open the TCP in and out to port 22 if you want to use the port 22..
