I don't see IPv6 mentioned anywhere in the file explicitly but I am guessing you are saying to delete line 18 from the file. listen [::]:80 default_server; If my understanding is correct then the ::: are for IPv6 as the addresses are pretty large. It's a good thing that the sites-available/default file is from nginx-common package $ dpkg -L nginx-common | grep default /etc/default /etc/default/nginx /etc/nginx/sites-available/default So I deleted that line and then reinstalled the package. ~$ sudo aptitude install nginx-full The following partially installed packages will be configured: nginx-full No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used. D000001: ensure_diversions: new, (re)loading D000001: process queue pkg nginx-full:amd64 queue.len 0 progress 1, try 1 Setting up nginx-full (1.6.2-5) ... D000001: ensure_diversions: same, skipping D000001: cmpversions a='0:1.17.24' b='0:1.16' r=1 D000001: cmpversions a='0:1.17.24' b='0:1.16' r=1 D000001: ensure_diversions: new, (re)loading D000001: cmpversions a='0:1.17.24' b='0:1.16' r=1 D000001: cmpversions a='0:1.17.24' b='0:1.16' r=1 For some reason I like aptitude more than apt-get, does the same thing, as can be seen it reconfigures the package and doesn't complain anymore. Then ran the test :- $ sudo /usr/sbin/nginx -t nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful Made sure that dpkg says it is installed just fine :- $ dpkg -l nginx-full Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============================-====================-====================-================================================================= ii nginx-full 1.6.2-5 amd64 nginx web/proxy server (standard version) So, essentially the work-around works. Now the standard behavior "should be" that if IPv6 fails, it should fall-back to IPv4 but for some reason that isn't happening. Just as a caveat also saw this http://www.ipv6-test.com/stats/country/IN, so it seems it will take a few more years for Ipv6 to become dominant at least here in India. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
