Fixing Lighttpd in Debian “squeeze” on SheevaPlug
I was using SheevaPlug as my Home NAS, with and external usb hdd, until recently when I built my new NAS, based on ION ATOM, FreeBSD and ZFS.
I am thinking to add an usb webcam and to use it as a monitoring system.
I updated Debian “squeeze”, which is running on an 8G SDHC card, but I got the error:
After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
Setting up lighttpd (1.4.25-2) …
Starting web server: lighttpd2010-01-22 23:13:31: (network.c.345) can’t bind to port: :: 80 Address already in use
failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript lighttpd, action “start” failed.
dpkg: error processing lighttpd (–configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
lighttpd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
sheeva:/home/ionut#
I didn’t have anything running and listening on port 80, so, it seems that it is a known bug, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=564556 and the solution is here:
Add in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:
server.use-ipv6 = “enable”
And add in /etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf:
“net.ipv6.bindv6only = 0“
