But this virtual server don’t have IPv6 configured and it appears that as a result the IPv6 line in `/etc/nginx/letsencrypt.conf`:

```nginx
    listen [::]:80;

```

Is the thing that is stopping Nginx from starting — I’m not sure what solution you are suggesting, my solution appears to work:

```plaintext
