Thread: caracara failing to bind to localhost?
Buildfarm member caracara has been failing the last few days because of
this:
LOG: could not bind socket for statistics collector: Cannot assign requested address
LOG: disabling statistics collector for lack of working socket
That code hasn't changed recently, AFAIK, so I'm thinking something's
broken in the machine's environment. Any ideas?

Any ideas? Firewall or that ipv6's issues when ::1 for localhost is enabled in /etc/hosts or that cases when there is an ipv4 address and an ipv6 alias in the same eth0? Was the tcpip_socket variable changed on caracara's host? []s Dickson S. Guedes mail/xmpp: guedes@guedesoft.net - skype: guediz http://guedesoft.net - http://www.postgresql.org.br

"ifup lo" brought back the local loopback, thereby restoring 127.0.0.1, so everything should work now. I hope... :-).
