AYON_WEBSERVER_URL and Ftrack Icons

General

Hello,

I have noticed that recently the ftrack actions icons were not loading correclty. This is recent.
I saw that the applications addon is returning http://127.0.0.1:PORT, and this seems to be the issue in my case.
After modifying it to be http://localhost:PORT, the icons were loading correctly.

Do any of you recall changing this of recent? can any of you reproduce this error in other environments?

This is a dirty fix I did, but ideally this can be addressed in the source repo in a better way?

That changed at about 2 months ago Tray: Server uses 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost by Liametc · Pull Request #1099 · ynput/ayon-core · GitHub . The reason to change it was that localhost can create IPv6 Ip address which can cause crashes in some DCCs (if I remember correctly). Forcing 127.0.0.1 is also forcing IPv4 and should be exactly the same thing as localhost.

Can you please fill in issue description? Was there some traceback, or it just didn’t show icons?

There is no traceback, simply the icons won’t appear in Ftrack, but there isn’t much else to say really, with localhost it works, with 127.0.0.1 it doesn’t, at least in our PCs.
