Hi, This bug is triggered on init, when the dhcp is delayed : eth0 is up, but does not already have an ipv4 address glusterfsd is launched an fails with : [2009-10-14 17:02:04] E [name.c:385:af_inet_server_get_local_sockaddr] server: getaddrinfo failed for host 0.0.0.0, service 6996 (Name or service not known) [2009-10-14 17:02:04] E [server-protocol.c:7660:init] server: failed to bind/listen on socket Example of config files which should works even if eth0 does not have an ipv4: volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp option transport.address-family inet option transport.socket.bind-address 0.0.0.0 end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport.address-family inet option transport-type tcp end-volume I joined a patch that fix the problem, but there may be a more clean way to do it. I checked the code of lighttpd: http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/repository/entry/trunk/src/network.c#L426 They use gethostbyname for ipv4 and getaddrinfos for ipv6, don't know if there is a good reason for that. thanks, Corentin Chary (1): transport/socket: glusterfsd fails to run if eth0 does not have an ipv4 addr transport/socket/src/name.c | 17 ++++++++++++++++- 1 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
