Fix IPv6 and ElasticSearch issue #80

Closed orlikoski closed 5 years ago

orlikoski commented 5 years ago

ElasticSearch can sometimes fail to load when it tries to use the IPv6 version of localhost.

IPv6 is disabled by default in the build process https://github.com/orlikoski/Skadi/blob/master/scripts/signedbuildskadi.sh#L267-L271 .

The fix is to comment out all IPv6 lines in the /etc/hosts

Example:

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
# ::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
# ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
# ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
