i am trying to install consul on a single node deployment but i am unable to start the service after following the steps mentioned at https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/consul/deployment-guide?in=consul/datacenter-deploy#setup-consul-environment-variables
this is my /etc/consul.d/consul.hcl:
datacenter = “main-dc”
data_dir = “/opt/consul”
encrypt = “RluMloPrB04sYOk/952AhpXLAJO7aGSfSCkbGIsyTlk=”
ca_file = “/etc/consul.d/consul-agent-ca.pem”
cert_file = “/etc/consul.d/main-dc-server-consul-0.pem”
key_file = “/etc/consul.d/main-dc-server-consul-0-key.pem”
verify_incoming = true
verify_outgoing = true
verify_server_hostname = true
retry_join = [“dns-server-ip”]
acl = {
enabled = true
default_policy = “allow”
enable_token_persistence = true
}
performance {
raft_multiplier = 1
}
bind_addr = [“main-node-server”]
ports = {
dns = 53
}
this is my /etc/consul.d/server.hcl
server = true
bootstrap_expect = 1
ui = true
client_addr = “127.0.0.1”
and this is systemctl output:
node ~]# systemctl status consul

when i run node ~]# /usr/local/bin/consul agent -config-dir=/etc/consul.d/ I can see this message showing up:
2020-08-20T18:24:59.754Z [INFO] agent: started state syncer==> Consul agent running!
2020-08-20T18:24:59.754Z [WARN] agent: (LAN) couldn’t join: number_of_nodes=0 error="1 error occurred:
- Failed to join dns-server-ip: dial tcp dns-server-ip:8301: connect: no route to host
it does not check for port 53 even if declared and if i add :53 to the retry join address directly is can see this with the same command:
2020-08-20T18:29:41.071Z [WARN] agent: (LAN) couldn’t join: number_of_nodes=0 error="1 error occurred:
- Failed to join dns-server-ip: read tcp :52360->dns-server-ip:53: i/o timeout
on my dns server i can see the port:
dnsmasq ~]# grep 53 /etc/services -w
domain 53/tcp # name-domain server
domain 53/udp
I simply followed the steps on a centos 8 fresh install, what is missing here?
ask me for any other needed info, thanks!
