metasploit3: Address family not supported by protocol

[propercoil]

hey there. i have searched the entire forum threads and google and have yet to solve this problem in backtrack3.

this problem happens when i start metasploit msf3web under backtrack:

Booting WEBrick
Rails 2.3.2 application starting on [127.0.0.1:55555]Remote Exploit Forums - Home of BackTrack[/url]

[2009-07-21 13:32:49] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=3327 port=55555


it was suggested by someone that this is a kernel ipv4 & ipv6 issue, but i have failed fixing it. also some forum thread suggested i try using netstat to see if tcpserver is still listening in a subsocket and kill it.

i'm using backtrack3 final installed to my hard disk.
please help!

So what happens when you try and connect to "hxxp://127.0.0.1:55555" in your web browser?

up and running.. but when i try to exploit a local non patched server it fails..it's faking..

but when i run metasploit 3 under a shell the error is not shown and is not faking when i try to exploit a local xp machine.
