Problem with adding IPv6 to Plesk 12.5

New Pleskian
Hey everyone,

I am currently running the trial version and I am almost completely satisfied :)

My Ubuntu Server 14.04 is a VM behind a NAT network in VirtualBox. Today I enabled IPv6, forwarding works and the machine has a IPv6, here is ifconfig output:

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:04:c1:a3
inet addr:10.0.2.15 Bcast:10.0.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: ****:****:****:*:***:****:****:****/64 Scope:Global
inet6 addr: ****::***:****:****:****/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:5716 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:5722 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:628080 (628.0 KB) TX bytes:3352112 (3.3 MB)

However I can't add the IPv6 to Plesk. Rereading doesn't do anything, there is still only the IPv4. When I try to add it manually the error is

Fehler: ifmng failed: SIOCSIFADDR: File exists /sbin/ifconfig eth0 add ****:****:****:*:***:****:****:****/64 exited with non-zero status 1

Do I have to add a separate network adapter with IPv6 only? Or what is the problem?

Thanks,
Philipp
