A syntax error would explain the socket setup > failure. Probably something as simple as a typo in ports.conf. I don't understand why there's a syntax error at boot but not when apache's restarted but we'll see... As I pointed out in an earlier post, "Listen 80" will enable both ipv4 and ipv6, and remove the possibility that there's a typo in the ip address(es). Since Debian (and all distributions that I know) compile apache with an option to map v4 to v6, running "ss -ntl" will show just one ipv6 socket. Maybe having both "Listen *:80" and "Listen [::]:80" will create two sockets, if that's what the OP's after (or one of the things that he's after). I can't check because I don't have ipv6 and I'm not sure that apache'll interact the same way with an ipv6 link-local address as it would with a "real" ipv6 address. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi, I'm initiator of this thread. > On Thu, Oct 04, 2012 at 04:53:23AM +0900, Satoru Otsubo wrote: > > Syntax error on line 2 of /etc/apache2/ports.conf > > What about this syntax error? Syntax error on line 2 is the following: Listen [:::]:80 By the way, I thought the following concerning the problem in my CGI PC (my server PC): Internet-Router--Lan-my PC When booting PC, apache2 decides that ipv6 is Ok if it gets the ipv6's information and ipv6 is not Ok if it can't get the ipv6's information. And apache2 gets the ipv6's information from the router's RA(Router Advertisements). But the router can't send RA immediately. Therefore when apache2 decides on whether ipv6 is Ok, it can't get the information yet. Therefore it decides that ipv6 is not Ok. Therefore in case of dual stack, apache2 issues an error because ports.conf is as follows: Listen a.b.c.d:80 Listen [:::]:80 Listen a.b.c.d:443 Listen [:::]:443 (Because ipv6 address explicitely exists, apache2 issues an error when it can't get ipv6's information.) In case of ports.conf being the following: Listen 80 Listen 443, apache2 falls back to listen only ipv4 ports because no address format exists. In fact, in boot sequence, I scroll locked by clicking the Scroll Lock key just before apache2's line appears, and after some moments, I again click the Scroll Lock to restart the boot sequence. Then after booting completed, I executed, # netstat -an And I found there exists Listen 80 and Listen 443 in the tcp6 lines. My thought is wrong ? By the way, on the PC of Squeeze desktop install (my second PC), After booting completed, on command of # netstat -an , I can always find Listen 80 and Listen 443 in the tcp6 lines. (Without # /etc/init.d/apache2 restart) Why in the desktop environment, "# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart" is not needed ? Is apache2 of the desktop environment executed in the other way than CGI environment ? In fact, I found, /etc/hosts of my GUI PC includes # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts whereas, /etc/hosts of my CUI PC only includes # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters Thanks, Satoru -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Where did you see the log? apache2 depends on $network. Wouldn't the ipv6 stack be available after the network's brought up? Doesn't "Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog $named" mean that apache2 starts once $network is satisfied/reached (meaning, I hope!, that the network's up). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

As of Debian Squeeze the ipv6 support is integrated at kernel level and no longer a module. Just do a "ifconfig eth0" or "ip addr show eth0" and you will always see an ipv6 line. Putting ipv6 in \etc\modprobe.d\blacklist.conf to prevent ipv6 support also no longer works as some may have noticed.
