Unable to complete cPanel plugin installation
Hello,
I'm trying to complete the installation of the Acronis cPanel plugin on one of my cPanel servers, but it's not possible due to what appears to be a port check fail.
Failed to connect to host "45.11.129.39" via port 7791.
Please update your firewall configuration and restart the installation.
This IP:port is unreachable from all my other (working) servers as well, so I believe that port 7791 is down/closed on Acronis' side.
To be sure, I've flushed my iptables rules, but the problem persists.
This is what I see under /usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/acronisbackup/srv/log/main.log
srv/log/main.log:[2020-09-02 23:35:18] [INFO] Checking connections: ('45.11.129.39', 443) True
srv/log/main.log:[2020-09-02 23:35:18] [INFO] Checking connections: ('45.11.129.39', 7791) False
srv/log/main.log:[2020-09-02 23:35:19] [INFO] Checking connections: ('45.11.129.39', 8443) True
Can I bypass the connectivity check somehow in order to proceed with the installation?
Thanks,
George

I wish Acronis would check things properly when doing updates and making changes. There always seems to be annoying bug every so often that wouldn't expect from an industry leader like Acronis!
I try to push Acronis over customers using JetBackup which always works flawlessly albeit not as fast at backing up, but then get issues like these which is off-putting to myself and those who wish to purchase Acronis service from us.
@Acronis, please make sure things are correctly checked in the future. Thank you.

Hey George_Fusioned,
I've notified the partner manager about this issue and thread.
Hopefully, they can get it resolved asap.

No news from mspsupport even after asking to have it escalated. crazy how long it takes...
Anyway, I found a workaround since both 45.11.129.38 and 45.11.129.39 point to the same location/server as per https://kb.acronis.com/content/47189 I added this to my /etc/hosts
45.11.129.38 eu-cloud.acronis.com
The installation passed the port check and completed fine.

Looks like somebody just fixed it.
I created two nodeping probes earlier today, checking those ports every couple of minutes to get notified when they start accepting connections again.

FYI even though it's fixed for over 48 hours now, mspsupport haven't responded until now...
