Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 80
I have running nginx server (doesn't matter which server):
$ sudo netstat -tulpn | grep 80
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4268/nginx
tcp6 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN 4268/nginx
And then I sent request to 127.0.0.1
$ curl -v 127.0.0.1
* Rebuilt URL to: 127.0.0.1/
* Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
* Trying 127.0.0.1...
* connect to 127.0.0.1 port 80 failed: Connection refused
* Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 80: Connection refused
* Closing connection 0
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 80: Connection refused
$ telnet localhost 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
All right in /etc/hosts:
127.0.1.1 ubuntu-work
127.0.0.1 localhost
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
iptables disabled $ sudo iptables -L:

It's interesting that I can connect to any address 127...* except 127.0.0.1 (localhost). And also I can connect with my subnet ip-address 10.0.2.15. And If I change port 80 to another in server config (e.g. Listen 88) it works.
I tried $ sudo nmap -sS 127.0.0.1 -p 80 and got info - 80/tcp closed, but how it's possible if running nginx server on port 80?
Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
Host is up (0.00011s latency).

Please help me if you have any ideas about what blocking localhost:80.
Nothing is blocking port 80. You just have firewall NAT rules which are redirecting connections to that port to other ports, which aren't open.

Remove these rules to resolve the problem.
