No IPV6 nginx install/service fail
On debian 10.13 with IPV6 disabled the nginx area fails.
Changes made to the fresh Debian install:
IPV6 disabled via GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="ipv6.disable=1"
ssh service installed & configured
static IP set
timesyncd.conf modified to point to the LAN time server.
luser added
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
ulimit -n 65535
apt install nfs-common -y
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default has the line:
listen [::]:80 default_server;
which causes the startup of the service to fail.
Commenting out that line allows the service to start and the install to continue.
journalctl -u nginx:

After the install and reboot in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default I had to comment out listen [::]:80; listen [::]:443 ssl http2 default_server; and then nginx server would start.
