Nginx fails to start when Centos/Plesk migrated to Azure

June 15, 2018 The Geek Decoder No Comments Azure, Nginx

There is a small issue where a Plesk/CentOS 7 system is migrated to Azure and nginx fails to start.
This is the error in the nginx log


# cat /var/log/nginx/error.log
2018/06/14 22:11:41 [emerg] 9341#0: bind() to 10.144.114.11:443 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)

If so then to edit:


# /etc/sysctl.conf

And add:


# net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind = 1

Then Run:


# sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf

start Nginx:


#service nginx start
