fix(.env.example): change 0.0.0.0 to localhost to allow ipv6 #3

Closed mnzaki closed 1 year ago

mnzaki commented 1 year ago

The default of 0.0.0.0 for HOST can cause issues on machines that have IPV6 configured, as typically localhost is bound to ::1 and when a listening socket is opened it automatically listens on the IPV4 address 127.0.0.1. This causes an issue for example if another application tries to access the strapi server as "localhost:1337" which will get resolved to the IPV6 ::1 but strapi isn't listening :(

Yeah it's a known issue on Macs since Apple in their inf wisdom changed localhost to use the ipv6 localhost by default

Well it's also an issue on my Arch linux with ipv6, mdns6, tailscaled and systemd-networkd... gotta support ipv6 at some point :P

I agree for local networks but within a LAN (especially localhost) using the ipv4 format should still be the default.
