samba and web server confilct

[clu55ter]

Hi all I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu 18.04.3 server edition on my home server, I installed samba an tested on my network and was able to see the shared folders from my windows and Android devices however I also needed to setup a local web server for which I installed Vesta control panel.

As soon as I installed and configured vestacp I lose the samba connection on the network.

I can see that both services are running but don't know why I can't access samba shared folder.

I've installed a fresh
1. copy of Ubuntu 18.04.3 server.

2. Installed and setup Samba using this guide: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-instal ... ntu-18-04/
On step two I tested the samba connection on my local network windows 10 and android all samba files are visible.

3. Install and setup Vestacp [URL]https://vestacp.com/install/ , added a WordPress site. sites working well.
After the third step, I lose all connections to my folders set up on step two.

below is the log of my samba status:

Does anyone know how I can find the issue, please?

Thanks

Looks like vestacp might add a firewall? Have to allow connections to ports 137-139 and maybe port 445.

There were no conflicts it was just the Firewall ports were closed after adding samba to allowed ufw with the following command $ sudo ufw allow samba the shared folder appeared back on the local network.
