Package: lighttpd Version: 1.4.69-1 Summary =================== Setting a custom port in a config file does not get picked up by the IPV6 module because the custom conf files are included after including use-ipv6.pl.
Thanks for your work on Debian and on lighttpd specifically. I just use it for a little personal home server but I appreciate it being available. To reproduce =================== 1 Note the port configured in lighttpd.conf $ grep server.port lighttpd.conf server.port = 80 include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/use-ipv6.pl " + server.port 2. Create a custom config and enable it, overriding the port in lighttpd.conf $ grep server.port conf-enabled/99-custom-port.conf server.port := 8080 3. Restart lighttpd 4. Test curl on custom port, ipv4 - works as expected $ curl -4 localhost:8080 lighttpd served this <---- My index.html file just has this text) 5. Test curl on custom port, ipv6 - unexpectedly fails $ curl -6 localhost:8080 curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 8080 after 0 ms: Couldn't connect to server 6. Test curl on lighttd.conf port, ipv6 - unexpectedly works $ curl -6 localhost:80 lighttpd served this Issue and suggested fix: =================== In lighttpd.conf the includes for conf-enabled/*.conf happens after passing server.port to the use-ipv6.pl script. Re-ordering these lines so that the conf files are included first allows the server.port value to be overridden. include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/use-ipv6.pl " + server.port include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/create-mime.conf.pl" include "/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/*.conf" System info =================== x86-64 $lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
