Feathercoin compiles but doesn't startup, error Address family not supported by

[Kumala]

I compiled the wallet from the source on Github. All well, got the binary, but when I start up the daemon I get the following message:
    
    Error: An error occured while setting up the RPC port 8994 for listening: Address family not supported by protocol


Any clues what's wrong here?


PS: Compiling on Ubuntu.

Are you using config option "rpcallowip" on feathercoin.conf?
Try removing it or check with "rpcallowip=127.0.0.1"

This is an issue with IPv6. Try enabling it or disabling IPv6 and try again.

Or apply the fix below and recompile.

I will look to change this in the Feathercoin client on the next release as this is an error that has come up a few times.
