nginx default configurations off

[twhiting9275]

It would appear that the default nginx configs (at least nginx_apache) are not quite correct and need to be updated.

When building, by default, nginx adds in ipv6 bindings to the configuration file ( /etc/nginx/nginx-vhosts.conf ). For most, this is ok. However, not for all.

If someone, say, doesn't have IPv6 added to the server (I know of at least one that doesn't provide it right now), then nginx won't start unless you take those lines out. Hopefully they won't be added back through some magic in the future

It would be best if there was a check for compatibility and IF ipv6 was enabled, THEN those lines are added. Not just adding them

Please let us know the output of:

/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin c | grep v6

I don’t think ipv6 is disabled.

I don’t think ipv6 is disabled.

There are no routable ipv6 addresses on the server

You are correct, DA thinks ipv6 is enabled but even ::1 doesn't work . The server / host doesn't support ipv6 and in this case, that's fine

atleast if your server don't have IPV6, you need to completely disable from system. checking by

ip a | grep inet6

What is the output from the command that @smtalk gave you? It’s possible that you need to disable ipv6 in the directadmin config file.
