sijie commented on issue #451: Error in downstream projects due to loopback address choosen by default event if not allowed and non-loopback address available URL: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/issues/451#issuecomment-323427354 ``` /** * Get the IPAddress of the local host as a string. * This will be a loop back value if the local host address cannot be * determined. * If the loopback address of "localhost" does not resolve, then the system's * network is in such a state that nothing is going to work. A message is * logged at the error level and a null pointer returned, a pointer * which will trigger failures later on the application * * @return the IPAddress of the local host or null for a serious problem. */ private static String resolveLocalHostIPAddress() { String address; try { address = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress(); } catch (UnknownHostException e) { LOG.warn("Unable to determine address of the host" + "-falling back to \"" + LOCALHOST + "\" address", e); try { address = InetAddress.getByName(LOCALHOST).getHostAddress(); } catch (UnknownHostException noLocalHostAddressException) { //at this point, deep trouble LOG.error("Unable to determine local loopback address " + "of \"" + LOCALHOST + "\" " + "-this system's network configuration is unsupported", e); address = null; } } return address; } ``` just fyi, if you address of local host can't be identified, it will use `localhost`. so please check your logs to see if you encountered this log statements. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
