socket.error: [Errno 97] Address family not supported by protocol

[supermamie]

I just installed Gate One on my raspberry pi on debian (uname -a = Linux raspberrypi 3.2.27+ #250 PREEMPT Thu Oct 18 19:03:02 BST 2012 armv6l GNU/Linux) My FAI enable IPV6 (seems that this error can be linked to that)

When I try to start gate on (./gateon.py) I get this error :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./gateone.py", line 3480, in main() File "./gateone.py", line 3429, in main https_server.listen(port=go_settings['port'], address=addr) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tornado/tcpserver.py", line 113, in listen sockets = bind_sockets(port, address=address) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tornado/netutil.py", line 85, in bind_sockets sock.bind(sockaddr) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 224, in meth return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args) socket.error: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address

Can you paste your server.conf (or 10server.conf)?

[supermamie]

Here it is. I only changed the address and port part. (and I'll change the origins later when I'll have created some users to be authorized to use it)

I have installed the server from the git sources, using the provided installation script.

It might have something to do with how your hostname is configured. Can you paste the output of this command?

grep mamieserv.fr /etc/hosts

...and also paste the output of:

ifconfig

I specifically want to see what address types are assigned and whatnot. If this is a raspberry pi device it may have something to do with usbnet being used for the interface and how it is enumerated by some underlying lib. Getting the ifconfig output will be helpful in figuring out if that's the problem.

[supermamie]

Thanks to your comment, I noticed that my hostname was not configured in /etc/hosts I added it and now the server starts :-) (now I have problem, I can't access it from my computer, but as "telnet 2222" is refused, I think it is a problem outside of gateOne, or a misconfiguration, not a bug :)

Thanks for your help (and sorry for being so long to answer, my personal computer is out of order and I wasn't able to access ssh via my corking computer, so I cofigure my server thru a GateOne instance on a friend's server ^^ )

[liftoff]

No worries. Please continue to open issues if you encounter them!

Hi,

I have the same issue, I tried various things including removing ipv6 support. I'm also on a raspberr pi

here are hosts and ipconfig

My problem was due to the fact that my domain name was not in my /etc/hosts file

It seems you have the same problem (can you post your server.conf to check ?)

[liftoff]

If the problem is the domain name in /etc/hosts then it probably isn't Gate One's fault... Probably a quirk of the python interpreter on your platform. I have some embedded devices I can test with... What distro are you running on your Pi?

[cemir]

hin the only server.conf found is settings/10server.conf

I use rasbian on raspberry, it's the last one

regards

[liftoff]

Have you tried adding something like this to your /etc/hosts file?

192.168.0.7 rasbian # <--or use some other suitable name

[cemir]

Yes, same error

but i realised my error is not exatly the same :+1: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./gateone.py", line 3493, in main() File "./gateone.py", line 3456, in main https_server.listen(port=go_settings['port'], address="") File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tornado/tcpserver.py", line 113, in listen sockets = bind_sockets(port, address=address) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tornado/netutil.py", line 69, in bind_sockets sock = socket.socket(af, socktype, proto) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 187, in init _sock = _realsocket(family, type, proto) socket.error: [Errno 97] Address family not supported by protocol

I am starting Air Notifier service on Ubuntu server and I am getting error like this...
