Hello,

I recently started doing some basic testing of pdns and it's been
going well.  I decided to test the master/slave setup, so I set
"master=yes" on one of my test servers.  The server fails to start
when this is enabled, logging the following:

May 25 01:40:24 archive-bak pdns[37672]: PowerDNS
3.0-rc2.20110509.2191 (C) 2001-2011 PowerDNS.COM BV (May 12 2011,
04:31:25, gcc 4.2.1 20070719 [FreeBSD]) starting up

PowerDNS really wants IPv6 enabled.

May 25 01:40:24 archive-bak pdns[37672]: Communicator thread died
because of STL error: Creating local resolver socket for :::
Protocol not supported

We could probably remove the ipv6 dependency here, but all in all, systems
w/o IPv6 support are getting to be rare.

In this case the host does support IPv6 (FreeBSD 8.1), but no IPv6 IPs are configured. Additionally, this is in a jail, if that makes any difference.

Just as a followup - I moved all this to a jail with IPv6 IPs and am not seeing the problem anymore. Just thought I'd add that for the archives for anyone else running FreeBSD + PowerDNS in a jail.

Ironically when I'm done testing, this will live on a host with a real IPv6 address, but the devel environment does not have IPv6.

I have not enabled the "hand unknown queries off to a recursor"
option that I know of...

This is the notification socket.

Considering it is able to bind to a v4 IP, can this perhaps be a non-fatal error? It feels kind of like bad form to die if there's not an IP available.

Also the error I found was coming from the resolver, so I'm still a bit puzzled. Anyhow, for the archives, it's here:

pdns/resolver.cc: unixDie("Creating local resolver socket for "+ourLocal.toString());

Thanks,

Charles

I'm going to try disabling IPv6 and recompiling (this test jail does
not run IPv6) and see if that makes a difference.

It might.

No such luck. (#undef HAVE_IPV6 in config.h)

Thanks,

Charles
