Description
Current Behavior
I am having issues starting at the very first installation of netbox receiving the following error:
netbox-1 | ⚙️ Applying configuration from /etc/unit/nginx-unit.json
netbox-1 | 2026/03/11 12:35:32 [alert] 7#7 socket("[::]:8080") failed (97: Address family not supported by protocol)
netbox-1 | 2026/03/11 12:35:32 [alert] 134#134 failed to apply new con
Expected Behavior
I have tried adding:
GRANIAN_EXTRA_ARGS: "--host=0.0.0.0"
In my docker-compose-override.yml but I had no luck, it stills fails to start because of that.
