Environment

Release : 3.2

Cause

In the /etc/hosts file had an incorrect entry for the IPv6 loopback address:


::1     drhostname.domain.tld drhostname

Resolution

Correctly configure /etc/hosts.

The IPv6 loopback should only be associated with the localhost. Example:

::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
