The infrastructure team cannot do anything about this, since the tracker is hosted by Upfront Systems. They are hosting the instance at Hetzner in Germany, which does support IPv6. Do we have someone with login permission for the server running RoundUp ?

I think Ezio and Martin have access to the machine, but not necessarily root access; and, furthermore, the problem might be somewhere else on the network.

I think the best short-term measure is to disable the IPv6 resolution for bugs.python.org. Otherwise people will run in the same issue over and over again.

Antoine.

If not, we should probably find someone at Upfront Systems to check the configuration. > Victor > > 2013/10/12 Antoine Pitrou <antoine at python.org>: >> >> Opened issue at http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue528 >> >> Regards >> >> Antoine. >> >> >> >> Le samedi 12 octobre 2013 à 14:40 +0200, Victor Stinner a écrit : >>> Hi, >>> >>> The DNS server of python.org announce the IP address 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3: >>> >>> $ host -t AAAA bugs.python.org >>> bugs.python.org has IPv6 address 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3 >>> >>> >>> The problem is that I cannot connect to this IP address: >>> >>> $ ping6 -c 4 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3 >>> PING 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3(2a01:4f8:131:2480::3) 56 data bytes >>> >>> --- 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3 ping statistics --- >>> 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2999ms >>> >>> >>> Do you have a the same issue, or is it just me? >>> >>> Victor _>>> _________________________ >>> Infrastructure mailing list >>> Infrastructure at python.org >>> https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure >>> Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/infrastructure/solipsis%40pitrou.net >>> >> >> _>> ________________________ >> Python-Dev mailing list >> Python-Dev at python.org >> https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev >> Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/victor.stinner%40gmail.com _> _________________________ > Infrastructure mailing list > Infrastructure at python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure > Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/infrastructure/mal%40egenix.com >
