A syntax error would explain the socket setup > failure. Probably something as simple as a typo in ports.conf. I don't understand why there's a syntax error at boot but not when apache's restarted but we'll see... As I pointed out in an earlier post, "Listen 80" will enable both ipv4 and ipv6, and remove the possibility that there's a typo in the ip address(es). Since Debian (and all distributions that I know) compile apache with an option to map v4 to v6, running "ss -ntl" will show just one ipv6 socket. Maybe having both "Listen *:80" and "Listen [::]:80" will create two sockets, if that's what the OP's after (or one of the things that he's after). I can't check because I don't have ipv6 and I'm not sure that apache'll interact the same way with an ipv6 link-local address as it would with a "real" ipv6 address. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
