Starting DB server with -ipver

Posted by Riverside Software on 09-Oct-2015 04:54

Hi,

OE11.5.1 Win64

When I started a DB broker with "-ipver ipv6 -S 25000", I'm getting the following message in the log :

BROKER  0: Started for 25000 using TCP IPV6 address ::, pid 8388. (5644)

However, when doing the same thing on Linux (and on same network), I'm getting this message :

BROKER  0: Started for 25000 using TCP IPV4 address 0.0.0.0, pid 15959. (5644)

Is there a bug with -ipver ipv6 on Linux ?

I just tried this on Linux64 and the log entry is as expected:

proserve mydb -ipver ipv6 -S 25000

Started for 25000 using TCP IPV6 address ::, pid 13180.

Is there something else you are doing?

I don't know yet what I'm doing wrong on this host. I've started a VM, and there I'm getting the expected message. So the config is probably broken on the physical host.

I can see the same issue as “Riverside Software”, eg –ipver ipv6 being ignored.
 
The ipv6 is enabled there and ifconfig –a says:
 
inet6 addr: fe80::219:b9ff:fef3:bbd7/64 Scope:Link
 
(If I add –H ::1 then it binds to localhost6 using ipv6)
 
The “Linux64” where it works has Link and Global Scope
 
inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:feae:1123/64 Scope:Link
inet6 addr: fd00:19d:808f:1::525/48 Scope:Global
