PHP: Error: Login failed. Unable to connect to ssl://example.org:443. Error: Connection timed out (POST)

Thank you for your quick response!


When using nmap from another computer in the same network, port 443 is said
to be open but port 8443 isn't. The same holds when running "nmap
localhost" on the machine itself.

The apache SSL configuration located in "/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf"
provides the only occurrences of the uncommented string "443" in
"/etc/httpd":
- "Listen 443 https"
- "<VirtualHost _default_:443>"
When running "grep -R 8443 /etc" the only matches I get are the two lines
located in "/etc/services". "grep -R "[^0-9A-Za-z]8443" /usr/share" returns
the following files:
- "/usr/share/doc/curl-7.29.0/CHANGES" (unrelated)
- "/usr/share/doc/perl-IO-Socket-SSL-1.94/example/ssl_mitm.pl"

Note that I am forwarding WAN port 443 to port 443 of my kolab server in
the LAN.


Please feel free to ask for logs and configurations!
