Ipv6 disabled but detected

Post by tesme33 »

Hi
just fresh installed and Efa.
First i thought lets at least enable IPV6 DNS but my VM doesnt get an IPv6 adress.
So i disabled it . See eFA configure output as shown below.

But i still get the following error message on the main login page:

MailWatch for MailScanner v1.2.15 running on eFa-4.0.3 ...ERROR INITIALIZATING IPV6, CHECK INTERNET ACCESS... - © 2006-2021

Code: Select all

edit vi /usr/sbin/eFa-Post-Init

locate row with contain this line

wget -q --tries=3 --timeout=20 --spider https://ipv4.efa-project.org

add parameter --no-check-certificate on it
so it will be

wget -q --tries=3 --timeout=20 --spider https://ipv4.efa-project.org --no-check-certificate
