**What type of hardware are you using** : Old laptop or computer
**What YunoHost version are you running** : 12.0.17
**How are you able to access your server** : Direct access via physical keyboard/screen
**Are you in a special context or did you perform specific tweaking on your YunoHost instance ?** : I use custom DSN resolver
### Describe your issue
Recently, I had a **short power outage** at home. My server restarted, but some services (mastodon if I remember correctly) stopped working. I checked the web admin, managed to connect, not through the domain, but with the local ip, but after a few minutes on the web admin, it froze, so I tried ssh. Same thing, would not connect to the domain, but worked through ssh. I figured something was wrong with the **DNS resolver** , and I remembered that I use the FDN resolver that recently ended. So I changed to [dnsforge.de](http://dnsforge.de)’s DNS. I thought I would solve the issue, but when I run the diagnosis, first of all, it stalls, but it still report an issue for internet connectivity about **DNS still being broken** “for some reason”. Also, **nginx won’t start** , and I **can’t connect through ssh** even via the local IP address. When I look at the nginx logs after trying to restart it, I get warnings about ingnoring “ssl\_stapling”, then a “start-pre opperation timed out. Terminating”
Any ideas ? I cannot copy paste the logs because I cannot connect through ssh. Thank you very much for your help \<3
### Share relevant logs or error messages
Cannot copy paste them 😕

Anyone have any idea ? I am very afraid of doing a whole new reinstall with the backups and everything… 😭 😭 😭

Hello @pp44t,
You can generate logs:
- from the web admin: Tools \> Services \> relevant service(s) \> Share with yunopaste
- from the command line using this syntax as an example:
`less /var/log/nginx/error.log | yunopaste`
How did you change the DNS?
Have you tried running `sudo yunohost tools regen-conf dnsmasq nginx ssh` or `sudo yunohost tools regen-conf`?

Sorry for the late answer, I am kind of panicking and avoiding the issue, but now I have no choice but to face it 😅

this returns no input received from less

this return :
```auto
Warning : WARNING Could not indentify correctly the dns zone for domain mydomain.tld, returning mydomain.tld.
```
This appear twice for my main domain and all subdomains.
I usually access my machine through a VPN, maybe the VPN client is not connected, creating an issue ?
Still 1 significant issue related to internet connectivity…
When I ask for human readable diagnostic results, I get a “the server does not seem to be connected to the internet at all !?”
So I tried to ping my router, or local machines, everything works, but if I ping outside of my local network, I get nothing ! My desktop, connected to the same router, has no issues.

… Une éventuelle différence entre `ping google.com` et `ping 8.8.8.8` ?
Question bête mais que je pose quand même: ta box n’aurait-elle pas pu faire sauter quelques lignes dans certaines tables (Nat, dyndns) suite à son redémarrage ? Je parle d’expérience…

Non, j’ai essayer sur les deux machine `fdn.fr` et `80.67.169.52` et même résultat, ping sur mon desktop ok, ping sur le server rien du tout…

Pas bête puisque effectivement tout a sauté. Je me disais que le UPnP aurait rattrapé le coup, mais dans le doute j’ai tout remis à la main, ça n’a pas l’air d’aidé beaucoup…
Cependant du nouveau, après `sudo yunohost tools regen-conf dnsmasq nginx ssh`, pas de changement, plus le temps hier, donc je redémarre mon serveur et me barre. Aujourd’hui, de retour dessus, je refait la redirection de port susmentionnée, puis je teste l’interface web, et elle est de retour 🥳 via l’adresse IP. Le serveur n’a toujours pas l’air d’avoir accès à internet…
Du coup quelques trucs que j’ai remarqué aujourd’hui qui sont bizarres :
- Ping le serveur via la commande ping dans un terminal : pas de réponse, mais Angry IP Scanner trouve le serveur, avec un ping de 2002 ms, de manière très régulière, des variations de quelques millisecondes entre les tests 🤔
- Angry ip scanner trouve bien mon port SSH ouvert (j’utilise un autre port que le 22), mais la commande SSH n’obtient pas de réponse…
- When I look into my /etc/resolv.conf file, the only name server I get is 127.0.0.1, is that normal ?

Et que retourne `ip route` ?

Déconnecte temporairement le pare-feu de yunohost pour voir si cela change qqch.
Il faudrait en savoir un peu plus sur la configuration de ton réseau (box ? box + routeur? VPN ? Règles de routage et/ou de pare feu, filtrage?)
PS : est-ce que tu as fait un `sudo yunohost tools regen-conf`complet ?
