Topic: SME 8.0 Beta 4 blocking outbound non standard http ports

[daniel]

In testing V8.0 b4 I've setup a server only used as a mysql server for a custom application using php and curl.  Curl is used to access http servers on non standard ports such as 8080 and 8084.  We've determined its something in V8.0 by the following test.  At the root user prompt typing lynx http://www.domainname.com:8080 will connect to the external server under a SME7.4 build.  The same lynx command will not connect in an SME8.0b4 build.  Curl commands to ports other than 80 are blocked in SME8.0b4 but work fine under SME7.4. 

I've check db configuration show  for masq and squid and both servers look correct.

Does anyone have thoughts where I can look next?

bugzilla?

Thanks for the suggestion, but had already looked in the 8.x bugzilla for any leads.

If you have not found any leads, then you will have to report a new bug for it in bugzilla, as all problems concerning SME Server 8 should be reported there and not in the forums.

do you use squid in a server only setup?

just tested on a fresh 8b4 virtual machine.. no problem to connect to external sites on non standard port (4580 in my case), so it could be an issue on your side.

Anyway, as cactus said, please report any issue in bugzilla, thank you
