If not, wait a few seconds and retry. Hmm, it's pretty odd that there's not any kernel errno message after the "socket: ", but otherwise this is not very surprising. There are a lot of platforms where libc thinks that IPv6 sockets exist but the kernel doesn't agree, and the above is the expected result in such cases. The postmaster will try to bind to the IPv6 address that getaddrinfo() told it to try to bind to, fail, and emit a bleat like the above. As long as there is an IPv4 address we can successfully bind to, no harm done. > Does anyone know the way to make the log not appear? Get your kernel and libc to agree about whether IPv6 is enabled. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
