In a FreeBSD jail with a single IP address any listening address
is implicitly converted to the jail address. As a result, if you
write in config "127.0.0.1" - upgrade won't work, as it will see
inherited socket listening on the jail address (10.10.96.146 in
your case) and will try to create a new listening socket with the
address from the configuration and this will fail.
There are two possible solutions for this problem:
- configure listening on the jail IP address to avoid this
implicit conversion;
- configure listening on "*" and use multiple addresses in the jail.
In both cases there will be no implicit conversion and as a result
everything will work correctly.
