So I'm just getting started with selfhosting things, and I have a minor problem which I'm having some trouble solving, as I keep getting a connection refused error when trying to connect:
send() failed (111: Connection refused) while resolving, resolver: 127.0.0.1:53
I run a jellyfin server on a NUC - it works well and is accessible on the private network. I want to have a public URL for this server - and other stuff, eventually.
Here's my setup
- I have a subdomain - jellyfin.mydomain.com - pointed to the external IP for my router
- I have the router set up to allow remote access, and port forwarding directing all port 80 traffic to my public ip > port 80 on the server
- On my server - running ubuntu - I installed nginx
- I used the official jellyfin nginx config for access from a subdomain
- I edited the server_name variable to match my subdomain
Now, whenever I access the subdomain in a browser I get a 502 Bad Gateway error. The /var/lof/nginx/error.logshows:
2024/05/10 08:26:37 [error] 95335#95335: send() failed (111: Connection refused) while resolving, resolver: 127.0.0.1:53

I have almost no experience with networking, linux, or nginx :D So I am sure the problem is obvious to someone else....
Can you help?
Watching from Scandinavia it's pretty bizarre to see all these weirdos appropriate our culture. Like, the vikings were by all accounts not particularly racist or race minded.
They were traders and occasionally pirates who loved poetry and storytelling and fighting amongst themselves. They'd go somewhere and settle and just freely intermingle with the local culture to form hybrid cultures like Norman, Russian, etc.
