OpenSSL: socket: Connection refused connect:errno=111 Cent OS

Question

I'm facing this problem.Actually I'm trying to disable SSLV3 and enable TLS 1.2 in my Cent OS production server.I found exact same question here.

[root@186-aven-vps ~]# openssl s_client -connect kickmarket.eu:443 -ssl3
socket: Connection refused
connect:errno=111

So I tried accepted answer in the above mentioned link

[root@186-aven-vps ~]# nmap kickmarket.eu

Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-10-27 04:16 GMT

But couldn't see the openssl running on port 443.Here is my some information

[root@186-aven-vps ~]# openssl version

Answer 1

Since the connection is refused there is either no server at this address or a firewall is blocking the connection. Not much more can be said from the information you provide but

• Check that you actually have a server running at port 443: netstat -lnt on the server machine will tell you if there is some server at port 443.
• If there is no server make sure you have it correctly configured (look for error messages)
