Servname not supported for ai_socktype

[Dmitry-N-Medvedev]

Hi.

Yesterday I have come accross 4store being unable to start up. Could you please have a look at the log below.

Any help is appreciated.

Interesting, this error is usually associated with some sort of
name-lookup problem.

The two parameters that may cause problem are the host and port number.
By default the host is NULL (which should be fine because we're using
AI_PASSIVE so that will create a socket bound to all local addresses)
and the port number is 8080.

If you have specified these things e.g. with the -H or -p parameter to
the daemon, or with a configuration file setting like "listen" or
"port" then the parameters you specified are evidently invalid and
that's why getaddrinfo() is failing.

Regardless of whether you're able to figure out the problem from this,
there might be an opportunity to improve 4store here by having the code
which reports this error also explain the "host" and "port" parameters
which actually resulted in the error.

Nick, thank you for your reply.

Please, have a loot at the code starting the 4s-httpd:

start-stop-daemon --start --chuid fourstore --quiet --oknodo --name 4s-httpd --startas /usr/bin/4s-httpd -- -p 9000 wiki

...which results in the following error message:

4store[6430]: httpd.c:1841 getaddrinfo failed: Servname not supported for ai_socktype
