Public bug reported: Binary package hint: lighttpd
If IPv6 is enabled in the lighttpd config, as it is per default, lighttpd fails to start with "address already in use" even with nothing listening on port 80 (checked with netstat -ln). The strace shows "bind(5, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(80), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "::", &sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, 28) = -1 EADDRINUSE (Address already in use)". Disabling IPv6 by uncommenting "include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/use-ipv6.pl" in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf in the config solves this. The server is setup with a static IPv4 address and has a self-assigned IPv6 address reported by ifconfig of "inet6 addr: fe80::a00:xxxx:xxxx:5061/64 Scope:Link ** Affects: lighttpd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- lighttpd fails to start with IPv6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
