ffserver: bind(port 8090): Address family not supported by protocol

Question

I install at myself Ubuntu server ffserver and try to run it with default config and get this error:

bind(port 8090): Address family not supported by protocol

I tryed to change address (8082, 8083) but it not works too :(

Any suggest?

Answer 1

The address family should be AF_INET in case IPv4 or AF_INET6 in case IPv6. It seems that the sin_family member of the address struct is not assigned a valid value. Please check it.
