Unable to connect to Linux Ubuntu Azure VM using public IP address.
I have tried everything.
- have 'ufw' active and allowed port 80
username@LinuxLR:\~$ sudo ufw status
Status: active
​
To Action From
\-- ------ ----
80 ALLOW Anywhere
443 ALLOW Anywhere
Nginx HTTP ALLOW Anywhere
80 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
443 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
Nginx HTTP (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
- done something I found about hard-enabling traffic on port 80
sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
- tested with local host. "curl localhost" grabs the html on the page. "curl public ip address" doesn't give a response. Literally nothing happens.
username@LinuxLR:\~$ curl http://127.0.0.1/

4. Similar thing with wget. "wget localhost" grabs the usual nginx html page. "wget public ip address" does:
```username@LinuxLR:\~$ wget "public ip address"
\--2022-10-19 19:40:43-- "public ip address"
Connecting to "public ip address"... failed: Connection timed out.
Retrying.
