Bug#562954: java-common: All java networking ignores ipv4 interfaces
Package: java-common Version: 0.34 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Since my last upgrade of java, all java applications that use networking stopped working. After some research I found that this is because of a change that makes java start to use ipv6 instead of ipv4. I have to following interfaces (ifconfig): br0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1a:92:3a:4a:c1 inet addr:192.168.2.4 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21a:92ff:fe3a:4ac1/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2656682 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1257786 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1473927102 (1.3 GiB) TX bytes:406009708 (387.2 MiB) eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1a:92:3a:4a:c1 inet6 addr: fe80::21a:92ff:fe3a:4ac1/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2656682 errors:0 dropped:1798 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1257827 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1474631718 (1.3 GiB) TX bytes:406015654 (387.2 MiB) Interrupt:17 loLink encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:350463 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:350463 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:42943362 (40.9 MiB) TX bytes:42943362 (40.9 MiB) And the following routing info (route): Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface localnet* 255.255.255.0 U 0 00 br0 default ansset.localdom 0.0.0.0 UG0 00 br0 Starting 'java' with -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true solves the problem for that particular application, but not entirely because some applications invoke java again themselves, ie a restart or subprocess. It's not nice to have to edit scripts of packages to get them to work again (scripts are not configuration files). Basically, all java networking got broken by this change (unless you have and use ipv6 interfaces). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash java-common depends on no packages. java-common recommends no packages.

# actually I disagree with that but the handling for this should be consistent # and the netbase maintainer handled the other bugs the same way block 560238 by 562954 # merge, 560142 has important, so downgrading this, too severity 562954 important forcemerge 560142 562954 thanks Hi, On Tue, Dec 29, 2009 at 03:24:23PM +0100, Carlo Wood wrote: Since my last upgrade of java, all java applications that use networking stopped working. After some research I found that this is because of a change that makes java start to use ipv6 instead of ipv4. java-common is a package like any else. And it's not something one should report ugs on which are not caused by it. (The change was in netbase -and see http://bugs.debian.org/netbase. I'll not judge the decision from here, you need to talk to the netbase maintainer)). Basically, all java networking got broken by this change (unless you have and use ipv6 interfaces). True, and what makes you think java-common changed? Grüße/Regards, Rene -- .''`.
