Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.25-2
Severity: minor
lighttpd refuses to install, seemingly because it is trying to bind
to port 80 twice:
| Setting up lighttpd (1.4.25-2) ...
| Starting web server: lighttpd2010-01-10 00:57:30: (network.c.345) can't bind
to port: :: 80 Address already in use
| failed!
Invoking the init script by hand yields the same result:
| # /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart
| Stopping web server: lighttpd.
| Starting web server: lighttpd2010-01-10 01:24:05: (network.c.345) can't bind
to port: :: 80 Address already in use
| failed!
| # echo $?
| 1
I do not have any other web server installed, nor is any other
program listening on port 80.
| $ netstat -a | awk '($1 != "unix") && ($6 == "LISTEN")'
| tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN
| tcp 0 0 localhost:smtp *:* LISTEN
| tcp6 0 0 [::]:ssh [::]:* LISTEN
The problem is that (why? I don't know, but that's a separate problem)
the bindv6only sysctl is not enabled. Enabling it fixes this.
A clearer error message would have made this easier to diagnose.
Even better, lighttpd could set the IPV6_V6ONLY option itself
and not rely on net.ipv6.bindv6only being set.
Thoughts?
