Problem

Enabled IPv6 with the following command :

zmprov ms `zmhostname` zimbraIPMode both

While running the zmcontrol restart got the following error :

Starting proxy...Failed. 
Starting nginx...nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:7143 failed (98: Address already in use) 
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:7993 failed (98: Address already in use) 
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:7110 failed (98: Address already in use) 
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:7995 failed (98: Address already in use)


Solution

Follow the below steps to enable IPv6 :

Change the zimbraIPMode to 'both':

su - zimbra 
zmprov ms `zmhostname` zimbraIPMode both

Run 'zmiptool':

/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmiptool

Then try restart the zimbra services :

zmcontrol restart
