Description

I am running Ubuntu 22.04 Server on an x86_64 machine. In my

/etc/default/grub

file, I have disabled ipv6 with the following lines:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="ipv6.disable=1"

After disabling IPv6 Via grub, and rebooting,

sudo apt install nginx

(or any version of nginx) fails completely with the following output:

Re-enabling IPv6 in Grub mitigates the issue, and all versions of Nginx successfully install afterwords. No versions of Nginx install when IPv6 is disable in grub.

To reproduce this issue, just disable ipv6 in your grub config before installing nginx.

Let me know when this problem is fixed.

Hi!

We don't support Ubuntu's own nginx packages and we have no authority over those.

You should file a bug report directly to Ubuntu over at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bugs to get this fixed.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
