Describe the problem/error/question
Hello,
Since n8n 1.97.0 when I install n8n via docker-compose n8n not start. When I go back to n8n 1.95.3 I don’t have any problem n8n start correctly and I don’t do specific between 1.95.3 and .198.0 or 1.97.0.
I don’t have any error but after initi process n8n nothing append, it doesn’t expose port 5678. my docker-compose is extactly the same between 1.95.3 and 1.98.0 (except the n8n version of course) but in 1.97.0 or 1.98.0 n8n is stucked.
Any idea ? Help very appreciate.

I found an issue maybe related :

### Bug Description
When trying to start v1.98.0 (docker) on a Ubuntu 24.04 mac… hine which has ipv6 disabled, n8n hangs at
"initializing n8n", even when starting from scratch.
I tried v1.91.0 and it worked fine.
Debug-logging didn't show any errors.
### To Reproduce
1. Disable ipv6 in Ubuntu 24.04
2. Try to start dockerized n8n
### Expected behavior
Maybe this is intended behaviour, but there should be at least error messages in the logs
### Operating System
Ubuntu 24.04
### n8n Version
1.98.0
### Node.js Version
default
### Database
SQLite (default)
### Execution mode
main (default)
Unfortunatly I can’t enable IPv6 from my company so I can’t say if this issue could be solved by enabling ipv6.

OK i can now confirm that the issue comes from IPv6.
I update line 178 n8n/packages/cli/src/abstract-server.ts at c229e915eafda0e09c881c46ab921dca46715ef1 · n8n-io/n8n · GitHub to “force” address to be “0.0.0.0” and n8n start…
