I have problem with connection to the virtual server. I always get connection refused and I don't know how to solve it.

I installed bitnami wordpress on virutal machine(VirutalBox). This working great. I can see wordpress site in browser on ip address which is showed in virtual machine when it is run. So if I good understand, I have now a local webserver created on virtual machine.

I tried access to the phpmyadmin through the secure ssh tunel using putty as in tutorial:

Connect To PhpMyAdmin : https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/faq/get-started/access-phpmyadmin/ I installed putty(ssh client), then I open it and start configured ssh tunel as in tutorial.

Precondition from tutorial:

  • my server ip adress is:192.168.5.9
  • bitnami default password is bitnami
  • server is configured with public key (so i genereted private key by puttygen)

Configuration ssh tunel in putty:

  • I entered IP adress of my server in the "Host name" and saved session fields

  • I also add private key ppk which I generated in puttygen application

  • Then I go to the Connection -> SSH -> Tunnels. Enter 8888 as "Source port" , Enter "localhost:80" as destination and click "Add"

  • I go to the Connection -> Data and Enter "bitnami" in auto-login fields

  • Then I go back to the Session and click "Save" to save the configuration.

  • Then I click Open to Open SSH session

  • I get message Connection refused

The connection was refused, but I don't know how to solve it.

I checked:

  1. SSH server is installed

  2. SSH Service Status is condition failed - Condition check resulted in OpenBSD Secure Shell server being skipped

  • Doesn't the "SSH Service Status is condition failed" pretty much answer your question?

  • That, and as I have already commented on your original Stack Overflow post, you have obviously problems connecting to the virtual server at all. So please do not complicate the question with PhpMyAdmin/tunnel.

  • Given your answer, that means the service wasn't running. Was there a part of the guides you followed that had you start the service?

I don't know what was wrong with this condition, but sudo service ssh start solve this problem.
