i think redis cluster doesn't work over ipv6

[rusik69]

Hello.
I'm trying to run cluster using ip6-only hosts but when I run ./redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 ipv6_address:7001 ipv6_address:7002 ipv6_address:7003 ipv6_address2:7001 ipv6_address2:7002 ipv6_address2:7003 , it gets locked up on Waiting for the cluster to join........ infinetely. If i run redis-cli -h ipv4_address -p 7001 cluster meet ipv4_address 7002 , it works properly and there is:9596:M 09 Apr 18:11:44.292 . Connecting with Node 4167d1f4be34010620a3c15e77e1a53e6f350e32 at ipv6_address:17002 9596:M 09 Apr 18:11:44.292 . I/O error writing to node link: Broken pipe .But if i run redis-cli -h ipv6_address -p 7001 cluster meet 127.0.0.1 7002 , it works, 9596:M 09 Apr 18:19:18.948 . --- Processing packet of type 1, 2208 bytes 9596:M 09 Apr 18:19:18.948 . pong packet received: 0x7fd407d81200 9596:M 09 Apr 18:19:19.029 . --- Processing packet of type 0, 2208 bytes 9596:M 09 Apr 18:19:19.029 . Ping packet received: (nil) 9596:M 09 Apr 18:19:19.029 . ping packet received: (nil)
looks like it doesn't work over ipv6.

@Loqutus Hi,
What is your ipv6 address ie is it valid?
What is the redis version you are trying?

Hi, i have a redis cluster running over ipv6 and had the same experience. For me the problem was binding to multiple ips for example
bind 127.0.0.1 ipv6

Changing to

bind ipv6 127.0.0.1
did the trick for me
