I'm trying to use the Connector-attribute "address" in the Tomcat 5.5.17
I'm running, as I want the Tomcat to listen to a specific IP-address
(I'm running two Tomcats on the same server). This works fine when I'm
running the Tomcat without APR, but when I run the Tomcat with APR
enabled it refuses to start:
ERROR main org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol - Error

endpoint

Removing the address-attribute also removes the problem.
I reported this a Tomcat bug (ASF Bugzilla Bug 39596) and received the
following answers:

This is already fixed in the SVN.
The problem is with IPV4/IPV6 address.
As a helper use the IPV6 address of the 192.168.3.5

I'm sorry but we have not digged in on IPV6 and have nothing configured
for IPV6
on our servers. I do not know what you want me to do to "use the IPV6
address of
the 192.168.3.5", but I suspect it won't work as we haven't implemented
IPV6.
Please give me some more hints on how to solve the problem.

It doesn matter if you don't have IPv6 configured if the APR was
uild with IPv6 support.
Try address="::1" . It should bind to 127.0.0.1
Anyhow. This issue is closed, so don't use it for further discussion.
If you need more clarification use Tomcat Developers list.

I followed this tip and tried usin address = "::1" which works fine:
INFO main org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol - Initializing
Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A1-80

INFO main org.apache.catalina.cluster.tcp.SimpleTcpCluster - Cluster is

But when I try to use address = "::127.0.0.1" (which I believe should
give the same result) this does not work:
ERROR main org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol - Error
initializing endpoint

Could someone please help me. How should I express the Connector
address-attribute so that the
APR-enhaced Connector will listen to a specific IPv4 address? I do not
have IPv6 setup on my server.
