netcat "Connection refused" on localhost - php

I'm trying to get a value from a netcat connection started at a php file, but it dies with:
localhost [127.0.0.1] 2000 (?) : Connection refused
I don't know why but it works well if I ssh it as apache user (www-data), this is what I've done:
1) Start an endless loop serving a date with a little delay:
$ (while true; do nc -l -p 2000 -c "sleep 5; date"; done)&
2) Check if is working:
$ su www-data
$ nc localhost 2000
Fri Oct 16 21:33:20 COT 2009
3) Create /var/www/test.php as follows:
<pre><?php
exec('nc localhost 2000>>/var/www/dates.txt 2>>/var/www/errors.txt &');
?></pre>
4) Run it on a browser:
http://myserver.com/test.php
5) Finally take a look at both txt's, dates is empty (nothing like the response in #2) and errors has the "Connection refused" error.
The server is a LAMP cluster running Ubuntu Server 9.04 with DRBD and Heartbeat.
What is driving me crazy is that this test.php works well in my laptop (LAMP on Ubuntu Desktop 9.04) and the server seems to have the ports already open and listening:
$ netstat -ntpl
Active Internet connections (only servers)

I think that this is a programming related question right?, if not just close it without any comments please.
Thank in advanced!!!

Well, it was a permission problem after all... fixed editing /etc/sudoers with visudo to add:
www-data ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/nc

Laravel web sockets automatically stopped

I am using beyondcode/laravel-websockets to implement web sockets functionality in Laravel. I am using supervisor in Apache server to run processes for database queues and web sockets. It was working fine until one day I realized that It has stopped working. I haven't made any changes to supervisor.conf file.
This is my supervisor.conf
[program:laravel-worker]
process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /var/www/webroot/ROOT/artisan queue:work --tries=3
autostart=true
autorestart=true
stopasgroup=true
killasgroup=true
user=apache
redirect_stderr=true
stdout_logfile=/var/www/webroot/ROOT/worker.log
stopwaitsecs=3600
startsecs=0
[program:websockets]
process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /var/www/webroot/ROOT/artisan websockets:serve
numprocs=1
autostart=true
autorestart=true
user=apache
When I try to start all supervisor processes using command supervisorctl start all, I get the following output:
laravel-worker:laravel-worker_00: started
websockets:websockets_00: ERROR (spawn error)
Based on this, I manually started the web sockets from my root directory using php artisan websockets:serve and I got below error:
Starting the WebSocket server on port 6001...

As mentioned in the exception, the port I am using for web sockets i.e. 6001 is already in use. I listed the used ports using the command netstat -tulpn and it shows that 6001 port is being used by php. This is the output:

I killed the process using kill 23974 but it reopens quickly and uses the same port again automatically. I am not being able to figure what exactly is using this port. I tried reconfiguring, restarting supervisor, redeploying my code etc. but nothing worked. What might be the possible issues here?

Cannot connect to RabbitMQ over the LAN

I have a running RabbitMQ cluster on 2 machines, let's call them rmq1 and rmq2.
I am using a PHP driver to connect to the nodes. When i run the code from rmq1 or 2 and my host is localhost, the connection works. But when i try to connect from another node from across the network, the connection fails with the error below
[PhpAmqpLib\Exception\AMQPRuntimeException]
Error reading data. Received 0 instead of expected 7 bytes
I have verified my RabbitMQ is listening on all interfaces, like so :
sudo netstat -plunt | grep 5672
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25672 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2749/beam.smp
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:15672 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2749/beam.smp
tcp6 0 0 :::5672 :::* LISTEN 2749/beam.smp
And i tried telnetting from the lan machine to host
telnet 192.168.0.40 5672
Trying 192.168.0.40...
Connected to 192.168.0.40.
Escape character is '^]'.
That works too. So what gives?
Most probably you are using guest login to connect to RabbitMQ server. Guest login can only works through localhost, you have to add another user with enough rights to access RabbitMQ other than localhost.
Refer: RabbitMQ Access Control

Cannot connect to apache server from local machine

I have installed apache and php on a linux server CentOS 6.4. I followed these steps
yum install -y httpd
/sbin/service httpd restart
yum install -y php php-mysql
yum install -y mod_ssl openssl
/sbin/service httpd restart
service iptables stop
I changed the ServerName in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf from
#ServerName www.example.com:80
to
ServerName 172.32.35.14 (ip address of the server)
/sbin/service httpd restart
I have a php sample pas with the following code:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
But when I try to access the page http://172.32.35.14/info.php from my local machine it says "Problem loading page". Whereas, I get proper response when connected to the page from 172.32.35.15
My ISP doesnt block http requests.
172.* network is a VPN. I connected to the VPN, able to ping the machine, do a ssh connection to the machine using putty. But when I cannot access the php page from my local machine.
What am I missing? Please advice
netstat -tulpn output is:

Unable to start laravel development server on linux

I am using laravel 5 for my project and everything has been working fine but recently I am facing this problem which I done understand.
devboy#devboy-hp ~/sonel_ims_project/ims_eneo $ php artisan serve

Then I change port like so php artisan serve --port="8888"
but get similar error like below after a while:
Laravel development server started on http://localhost:8888/
[Fri Nov 13 12:01:02 2015] Failed to listen on localhost:8888 (reason: Address already in use)
The first time it happened, it was java using port 8000, so I killed the process and started the server and it worked. Upon stopping and restarting, I get the same error. What could be the problem (as I said everything has been working fine except now and I have not done any major update)?
Your previous deployment in your local is already running that's why you can't run php artisan serve. You can solve your issue by following this command in your terminal:
ps -ef | grep php you'll see this list:
gujarat 6690 3500 0 05:55 pts/1 00:00:00 php artisan serve
gujarat 6694 6690 0 05:55 pts/1 00:00:00 sh -c '/usr/bin/php5'
-S localhost:8000 '/home/gujarat/WebDevelopment/quickstart-basic'/server.php gujarat 6695 6694 0 05:55 pts/1 00:00:00 /usr/bin/php5 -S localhost:8000
/home/gujarat/WebDevelopment/quickstart-basic/server.php
gujarat 7436 3500 0 06:26 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto php
Now kill it using: sudo kill 6690 if still exist then use this sudo kill -9 6690 you'll see this result:
[1]+ Killed php artisan serve
Now you can serve your local using php artisan serve again
please restart apache server
sudo apache restart
And once again run your project in another port
php artisan serve --port=2020
This is exactly what I did for the problem.
I exit PHPStorm
sudo netstat -plnt
kill 7563 (Process using port 8888)
kill 6931 (Process using port 8000)
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart (Restart my server altogther)
php artisan serve
Launch PhpStorm
Now everything is working fine. What caused the problem anyway?
Using lsof, you can see what is listening on the port.
sudo lsof -i :80
Change the 80 to whichever port you're interested. You need to be root or sudo.
Run this comment
sudo netstat -plnt
The output will show like this
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 14 0 127.0.0.1:8000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3648/php7.3
Then kill the port:8000 using this comment
kill -9 3648
Well the problem might be it didnt stop the expected way previously eg via CTRL+C so what you can do is to check for running php processes and kill them 1 by 1.
i) Run ps -A from the terminal then identify the php process ids (most of the times they are two)
ii) Run sudo kill -9 pid# corresponding to the php pids.
iii) Run php artisan serve and it will work.
This can happen when there is already an app running on 127.0.0.1:8000
You can close that app then it will work or not available on the current host.
OR if you want to run multple apps then use shown below way:
You can use this command to run sudo php artisan serve --port=8082 for Linux
php artisan serve --port=8082 for window

Debugging not starting

UPDATE:
I've spent way too much time on this and have decided to ditch it and continue using the clunky NetBeans.
ORIGINAL QUESTION:
I'm having some difficulty getting xdebug to work with sublime text 2.
What I have done so far is install:
LAMP,
php5-xdebug
python2.6
sublime-text-2
sublimexdebug
If I then use sublime to open a php file and press shift+f8, the xdebug menu pops up from which I can add/remove breakpoint and also start debugging.
Some php:
Menu drops down when I press shift+f8:
Debugging started:
In that image it says:
Xdebug: No URL defined in project settings file
Info.sublime-project contains:
{
"folders":
[
{
"path": "/var/www"
}
],
"settings": {
"xdebug": { "url": "http://localhost" }
}
}
As you can see from the 3rd screenshot, I have started debugging and nothing happens, no errors, no browser window opens, nothing. If I manually navigate to localhost/info.php, the page loads as normal. If I manually add ?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=sublime.xdebug to the end of the url so localhost/info.php?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=sublime.xdebug and hit refresh on the browser, the page loads as normal and debugging still doesn't start.
What am I doing wrong?
UPDATE: Some info about ports:

Some tips:
Check that Xdebug is running checking the information generated by the phpinfo command.
Enable remote debugging in the xdebug configuration (and verify again with the phpinfo command):
xdebug.remote_enable=1
I don't use the xdebug setting in Sublime Text. I think it is not necessary.
Open the console in Sublime Text. Any problem is logged in the console. There are some problems in Ubuntu reported in the pulgin homepage.
I use a browser extension to activate or deactivate the debugging. In Chrome look for "Xdebug Helper for Chrome". You need to configure the cookie name as "sublime.xdebug".
I use Easy xDebug for firefox to kick start the debug session and that works a charm. You need to use "sublime.xdebug" for the idekey.
I presume that you've got some break points in there? Your screenshots imply that you do but make sure that you use the shift+f8 menu to add them.
You have got a problem in your configuration, it is using the wrong syntax (according to Issue #13):
{
"folders":
[
{
"path": "/var/www"
}
],
"settings": { <<<==== problem here
"xdebug": { "url": "http://localhost" }
}
}
Instead it should be:
{
"folders":
[
{
"path": "/var/www"
}
],
"xdebug":
{
"url": "http://localhost"
}
}
This is probably also causing it not working.
I experienced the same issue and submitted bug report here:
https://github.com/Kindari/SublimeXdebug/issues/58
However, it may be socket related bug in XDebug itself:
