Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Install Problem Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: https://www.google.com/accounts () Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) 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.
