I installed 8.1.2 on Debian Linux 10. The installation succeeded, but the Gateway process does not open the webserver port 8088. Instead it seems to listen on localhost:32000

There are no erros in the log:

Any help would be much appreciated!

You could try adding `-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true` to the additional parameters section.

It’s binding to IPv6 fine:

Dual IPv4/IPv6 is supposed to be automatic, not sure why you’re seeing an issue. Must be something about Deb 10.

Can you not access the gateway at localhost:8088 or 127.0.0.1:8088?

Thank you, that worked!
