Starting frontend xxxx: cannot bind socket

[vikozo]

Hello

i wished to add HAProxy to point to a VM on my Setup.
i followed this wonderfull tutorial in German https://schulnetzkonzept.de/opnsense
I think i have done it right but the HAProxy don^t start

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/haproxy: WARNING: failed to start haproxy

i have also a error like

kernel   arp: 32:ea:39:26:d2:c1 attempts to modify permanent entry for 10.147.42.195 on igb1

this ip would be the VM i wish to add to HAProxy

and another error but not sure if it belongs to my HAProxy error

configctl[67179]   error in configd communication Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/opnsense/service/configd_ctl.py", line 68, in exec_config_cmd line = sock.recv(65536).decode() socket.timeout: timed out

any idea how to find out why HAProxy not start?

have a nice day

Hello
because all the error where on the front end - i removed all of them, and yes HAProxy restarted again.
As soon i added something and did a reload it stop working.
But checking the Documentation there
https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/haproxy.html

and removing all my config and just add the config with 0.0.0.0:81 and reload the HAProxy and there is no error!
So i changed back to my IP needed, and i got a error.

so why is it not working with my IP Adress, must this ip be somewhere added too?

have a nice day
and hope to get a feedback.

have a nice day
