bug: Protocol: "inet_tcp": register/listen error: eaddrinuse while starting a node

2008-09-05T11:46:09Z

Hello everybody.

It's me again. I've posted this message some time ago, but have not got
any response. I confirm that this bug is reproduced (seems to be
floating bug) when using R12B-3 version and '-kernel inet_dist_listen_min
XXXX inet_dist_listen_max YYYY' when XXXX number equal to YYYY.

Hi, everyone!

I have noticed some troubles while starting node with '-kernel
inet_dist_listen_min 5290 inet_dist_listen_max 5290' options. And
everything works fine when these options are omitted.

The output is here:

Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
Kernel pid terminated (application_controller) ({application_start_failure,kernel,{shutdown,{kernel,start,[normal,[]]}}})
===========

After a little bit of investigation I've noticed, that there is no
'{reuseaddr, true}' socket option in the lib/kernel/src/inet_tcp_dist.erl. If
I add this option, recompile inet_tcp_dist.erl, put it into proper
place, everything works fine like when mentioned above kernel options
are omitted.

The tiny patch is included.
