nginx for Windows - WSASend() socket error 10057

So what is the meaning of Auth-Server and Auth-Port headers? So it's relevant only when nginx works as SMTP Proxy (not SMTP Server)? And these are host/port where to redirect SMTP requests?
Yeah, I was all the time surprised -- how come, it's set as Proxy but there is no setting where it redirects SMTP communication to. A little bit unexpected place for those setting.

Well, let me try...

I ran Fake SMTP Server on port 25.(I found on Internet some fake SMTP Server). I configured my test SMTP client to localhost:25 (later to 127.0.0.1:25). They send/receive successfully. So both SMTP Client and (fake) SMTP Server work fine.
127.0.0.1 works fine too.

I re-configured my test SMTP client to localhost:8025 (tried 127.0.0.1:8025 too). As well, I changed this section of config as follows:
http {
    server {
        listen 9000;

        location /cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi {
                add_header Auth-Status OK;
                add_header Auth-Server 127.0.0.1;  # backend ip
                add_header Auth-Port   25;        # backend port
                return 204;
        }
    }
}

The same error:
2020/02/14 17:37:18 [error] 15260#3328: *5 WSASend() failed (10057: A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied) while in http auth state, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 0.0.0.0:8025

Update:
Detailed logging with debug information helped a lot.
This is what I noticed in there:

2020/02/14 17:40:28 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 smtp auth state

2020/02/14 17:40:28 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 event timer add: 588: 60000:1172123084

So it's trying to use IP6 rather than IP4.
And below:

2020/02/14 17:40:29 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 delete posted event 03171170
2020/02/14 17:40:29 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 mail auth http write handler

2020/02/14 17:40:29 [error] 3940#22096: *1 WSASend() failed (10057: A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied) while in http auth state, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 0.0.0.0:8025
2020/02/14 17:40:29 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 event timer del: 588: 1172123084
2020/02/14 17:40:29 [debug] 3940#22096: *1 event timer del: 588: 1172123084

So, I replaced localhost with 127.0.0.1 like this:
    auth_http         127.0.0.1:9000/cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi;

And it worked. Since I forced it to use IP4.
Any idea how to use host name instead of IP address and still have it working?

Update 2:
I figured it out. Googled a little bit and ended up with the following change to my config:

http {
    server {
        listen 9000;
        listen [::]:9000 ipv6only=on;

        location /cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi {
                add_header Auth-Status OK;
                add_header Auth-Server 127.0.0.1;  # backend ip
                add_header Auth-Port   25;        # backend port
                return 204;
        }
    }
}

Now it works.
But why just "listen 9000" doesn't listen on both IP4 and IP6?
Is it a bug?

I don't know what is wrong with your config... I guess your smtp server does not answer properly.

Is 127.0.0.2:143 really your SMTP-server?
Because port 143 is mostly an IMAP port - but you've specified protocol smtp in the server section.

Anyway I tested your config with my settings (replaced name and smtp-server, here 192.0.2.222:25) and enabled debug:

+ error_log  logs/error-mail.log debug;
  mail {
    - server_name       localhost;
    + server_name       example.com;
...
  http {
...
    - add_header Auth-Server 127.0.0.2;
    - add_header Auth-Port   143;
    + add_header Auth-Server 192.0.2.222;
    + add_header Auth-Port   25;

it works well - I see the test incoming mail (I send to myself via 8025 port) and following output in the log (a lot of irrelevant messages are removed):

Hi Sergey,


I reconfigured the config file as follows:

=== === ===
#user  nobody;
worker_processes  1;

#error_log  logs/error.log;
#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

#pid        logs/nginx.pid;


events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


mail {
    server_name       localhost;
    auth_http         localhost:9000/cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi;
#    auth_http         none;

    smtp_auth         none;
#    smtp_auth         login plain cram-md5;
#    smtp_capabilities "SIZE 10485760" ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 8BITMIME DSN;
    xclient           off;

    server {
        listen   8025;
        protocol smtp;
        proxy    on;
        proxy_pass_error_message on;
    }
}

http {
    server {
        listen 9000;

        location /cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi {
                add_header Auth-Status OK;
                add_header Auth-Server 127.0.0.2;  # backend ip
                add_header Auth-Port   143;        # backend port
                return 204;
        }
    }
}
=== === ===

And now it's responding on port 9000 as expected:

=== === ===
C:\WINDOWS\system32>curl -H "Auth-Method: plain" -H "Auth-User: user" -H "Auth-Pass: pwd" -H "Auth-Protocol: imap" -H "Auth-Login-Attempt: 1" -i http://127.0.0.1:9000/cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi

Connection: keep-alive
Auth-Status: OK
Auth-Server: 127.0.0.2
Auth-Port: 143
=== === ===

However I'm still experiencing the same issue (in log file):

=== === ===
2020/02/13 16:29:24 [notice] 35048#26192: signal process started
2020/02/13 16:29:34 [error] 31732#22720: *1 WSASend() failed (10057: A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied) while in http auth state, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 0.0.0.0:8025
=== === ===

Tried under both admin and regular user.

Any further ideas how to get it fixed please?


Thank you,
Yury

Hi Sergey,


Thank you for you response.

I tried netstat /nabo and I don't see any reference to port 9000 at all.
So a problem is to make nginx to listen on port 9000 (as server)?
Or nginx is not listening on port 9000 but rather sending requests to port 9000 (as client)?
With setting of `auth_http`, you are defining an URL to the service responsible for authentication (and upstream choice).
Of course then you should have something that would response to the auth-requests (your own upstream, or some nginx location, or some "foreign" http-server).

See https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/mail-proxy/mail-proxy/ for more examples.
Maybe it's easier not to use auth_http at all? I was trying to remove it from configuration file but nginx was not happy.

I have my own auth-module so I don't know how it can be solved in stock-nginx without this directive.

Take a look here - https://serverfault.com/questions/594962/nginx-understanding-the-purpose-of-auth-http-imap-proxy - you can use some nginx location (and internal URL to same nginx instance) to specify that.

Anyway it is recommended to use some auth (on nginx side), because it'd preserve the resources of mail-servers, allow you to authenticate email clients with same user/password for all mail-servers (smtp, imap, pop3, etc) as well as the same user/pwd as for some other http-services. And it is used to choose an upstream server (if multiple) for the email processing.

At this point I don't need any authentication. I was told by my boss to use nginx for load testing of our service sending emails (SMTP client). I've got some SMTP Server and nginx would be used as SMTP proxy because it allows to set up delays.
Well, an auth request to some nginx-location would allow you to set up delays even on authentication phase.
And take into account that I REMOVED "--with-http_ssl_module" from parameters when I was building nginx.

And you advised to download some nginx.exe files but I believe they were built without "--with-mail" parameter (which I need).
Although, it was compiled with "--with-mail" (you can see all parameters in provided GH-link<https://github.com/sebres/nginx/releases/tag/release-1.13.0>)
But it would not help, because basically your issue seems to be the configuration (not the nginx.exe).

Thank you,
Yury

It looks like your service defined in auth_http doesn't answer (or no listener on 127.0.0.1 port 9000?)...

try netstat (in cmd as admin):

netstat /nabo
netstat /nabo | grep -A 1 ":9000\b"

and check whether the listener on port 9000 is bound to 127.0.0.1 (or it is 0.0.0.0 only?) and it is the process you expect to see there (can be "reserved" by some other windows-service).

additionally try to telnet or curl it:

curl -H "Auth-Method: plain" -H "Auth-User: user" -H "Auth-Pass: pwd" -H "Auth-Protocol: imap" -H "Auth-Login-Attempt: 1" -i http://127.0.0.1:9000/cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi

if it does not answer, make another attempt by replace 127.0.0.1 with 0.0.0.0 (or a host-name).

If it answers - see whether it is the expected response (some examples of good and bad responses are described in http://nginx.org/en/docs/mail/ngx_mail_auth_http_module.html).

But I guess if WSASend fails, it would probably (unexpected) reject the connection during the send (or even connect) process.
It can be also invalid (unexpected) content-length in keep-alive connect to auth-upstream - so send but still receive is expected (or vice versa).

Also follow this forum topic addressing similar issue: https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,257206,257207#msg-257207

Anyway it doesn't look to me like an issue of nginx (regardless windows or not), but you can also try some other ready build (for example on my GH<https://github.com/sebres/nginx/releases/tag/release-1.13.0> - nginx.zip<https://github.com/sebres/nginx/files/2246440/nginx.zip>, where it works well).

Sergey

Hi there,
Trying to make nginx work as SMTP server and/or SMTP proxy. Done everything according to:
http://nginx.org/en/docs/howto_build_on_win32.html
But excluded (don't care about SSL at this point so don't want to install/configure Perl now):
    --with-openssl=objs/lib/openssl-master \
    --with-openssl-opt=no-asm \
    --with-http_ssl_module \
And added:
    --with-mail
nmake was successful and nginx.exe was created.
However nginx.exe keeps failing with the error:
WSASend() failed (10057: A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied) while in http auth state, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 0.0.0.0:8025
Windows API says the following about this error:

Socket is not connected.

Managed to debug your code in VS 2010 a little bit but it's brutal C so it's hard to figure your code out. And this debugger doesn't show you any local variables values.
Any recommendation for me to make it work?
Tried to play with config (commenting/uncommenting):
#user  nobody;
worker_processes  1;
#error_log  logs/error.log;
#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;
#pid        logs/nginx.pid;
events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}
mail {
    server_name       localhost;
    auth_http         localhost:9000/cgi-bin/nginxauth.cgi;
#    auth_http         none;
    smtp_auth         none;
#    smtp_auth         login plain cram-md5;
#    smtp_capabilities "SIZE 10485760" ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 8BITMIME DSN;
    xclient           off;
    server {
        listen   8025;
        protocol smtp;
        proxy    on;
        proxy_pass_error_message on;
    }
}
Tried both under a regular user and under admin. Tried on 25, 1025 and 8025 ports.
Thank you,
Yury
