The problem is that the HTTPServer from standard lib is doing the call
on line 109-110 of the file BaseHTTPServer.py on method server_bind.
See the code bellow.
class HTTPServer(SocketServer.TCPServer):
allow_reuse_address = 1 # Seems to make sense in testing environment
def server_bind(self):
"""Override server_bind to store the server name."""
SocketServer.TCPServer.server_bind(self)
host, port = self.socket.getsockname()[:2]
self.server_name = socket.getfqdn(host)
self.server_port = port
The host variable gets '0.0.0.0' and when the call to socket.getfqdn
is made the exception is thrown.
