Summary: Bot reports no IP address on localhost
Initial Comment:
I run a locked-down server that denies access to all but 127.0.0.1 via httpd.conf.
Recently, I have not been able to login with the bot, whereas I was able to previously.
I removed the restriction (relying only on a firewall), and now I could login via the API,
but I see the following in the logs:
::1 - - [22/Jun/2010:11:30:41 +0300] "POST /scriptpath/api.php HTTP/1.1" 200 91
whereas I would expect to see
127.0.0.1 - - [22/Jun/2010:11:30:41 +0300] "POST /scriptpath/api.php HTTP/1.1"
200 91
This appears to be new behavior, but I am not sure when it appeared, and due to the
rolling nature of the bot's development, I am not sure whether it was a change to
Python, the bot, or the way my OS handles Python that did this.
I was able to work around the issue by modifying my httpd.conf
My httpd.conf includes the following:
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
I added
Allow from ::1
This seems to work around the problem, but it seems a bit odd (to me, at least) that the
bot reports no IP address on a local system when connecting to localhost.
For what it's worth, this is on Mac OS 10.6.3 with Python 2.6.1.
