Build error during test c00003.vtc

[Johnny Halfmoon]

Hi,

a small bugreport here. I had a bit of a hard time building a Varnish  
2.1.4 RPM on a RHEL6 machine. The build kept failing during the  
selftest part, specifically the c00003.vtc test:

---- v1   FAIL CLI response 200 expected 300
------8<------ snip --------8<-----------------
###  v1   debug| child (6300) Started\n
###  v1   CLI RX  200
##   v1   CLI 200 <start>
---- v1   FAIL CLI response 200 expected 300
###  v1   debug| Child (6300) said \n
###  v1   debug| Child (6300) said Child starts\n
###  v1   debug| Child (6300) said managed to mmap 10485760 bytes of  
10485760\n
#    top  Test timed out
#    top  TEST ././tests/c00003.vtc FAILED
FAIL: ./tests/c00003.vtc

Eventually I found the cause to be the following: If  
/proc/net/ipv4/ip_nonlocal_bind is set to '1' , then the test error  
will occur. The solution is to do the following:

echo 0 > /proc/net/ipv4/ip_nonlocal_bind

The default setting for ip_nonlocal_bind on most Linux systems will be  
'0', but in my case, the buildmachine was also a testmachine for  
fail-over setup, which required ip_nonlocal_bind to be set to '1'.

I hope this helps.
