right?
no - i don not think it is a problem of my computers name resolution of the hosts entry "localhost" because "ping localhost" etc. works.
Also "netcat -l localhost -p 8529" together with "netcat localhost 8529" are working perfect. "/etc/hosts.conf" has "order hosts, bind" which means, as far as i understand it, first ask the /etc/hosts file and then the specified name servers, but this is - i guess - what most standard linux systems have.
But i think i found it:
In my /etc/hosts i have more than one entry for the address 127.0.0.1.
I am using this for testing my virtual hosts on the local machine. When i delete/uncomment all other entries but the one
"127.0.0.1 localhost" "make test" works.
No - more testing:
At least only the IP V6 entry
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
which is a default entry in my SuSE 9.0 system, was it.
After uncommenting it, the test works (as far as the httpd is accessed).
Hope this helps.
Yeah, this recent flurry of distros adding ::1 to ipv4 systems is the constant cause of breakage of Apache::Test :(
Glad to see that you've found the problem. I guess I need to start adding these odd configurations to my system so I can reproduce the problem and figure out how to deal with it programmatically. Unless someone with ipv6 experience (which I don't have) wants to help to figure that out.
