PHP and virtual network interfaces

Hi,

On a server that uses virtual network interfaces I got the following
error message when using PHP:
Host 'localhost' has multiple addresses. You must choose one explicitly!
Couldn't create FastCGI listen socket on port localhost:47990

For the PHP information source, I tried using "127.0.0.1" instead of
"localhost" and this seems to solve the problem.

So I would like to suggest that the PHP Wizard uses 127.0.0.1 as a
default.

Regards,
Walter

I'm pretty sure it does, at least in trunk. Maybe it didn't before, I
couldn't tell.

I used 0.99.24. But it is good to know that it already has been changed
in trunk.

Using 127.0.0.1 may couse roblems with virtual hosting environments that
have a localhost address different than 127.0.0.1 and no 127.0.0.1 at all.
