What URL does OWIN understand for ipv6 self-hosting?

问题

My application uses self-hosting feature of ASP.NET Web API. NuGet package name I use is Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.SelfHost. I used following example as a base.

Following code works for me to launch host on ipv4 localhost endpoint:

WebApp.Start<Startup>("http://127.0.0.1:43666");

What do I enter if I want to specify ipv6 address? "http://[::1]:43666" does not work. Exception thrown is [reformatted]:

System.Net.HttpListenerException: The network location cannot be reached. For information
   ..about network troubleshooting, see Windows Help
at System.Net.HttpListener.AddAllPrefixes()
at System.Net.HttpListener.Start()
at Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener.OwinHttpListener.Start(HttpListener listener, 
   ..Func`2 appFunc, IList`1 addresses, IDictionary`2 capabilities, Func`2 loggerFactory)
at Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener.OwinServerFactory.Create(Func`2 app, 
   ..IDictionary`2 properties)

Judging by my inspection of code in reflector, the HttpAddUrlToUrlGroup function returned error code 1232

I did not find a solution, however following is a workaround, although it will start server on all addresses, including non-local and ipv4:

WebApp.Start<Startup>("http://+:43666");

Since this question didn't generate any interest I'm closing it

had the same problem and it seemed to be the Account under which the service was running. Need to make sure it's running under NetworkService - both localhost and other variations of URLs should work then :)
