Unable to handshake with the server

[ghost]

I wanted to connect from my minnowboard running Ubuntu18.04 to my VPS deployed in HK with gohop. But the handshaking could not be done after both server and client have been correctly configured according to the manual. After diagnosing with several potential causes, i finally found that the ports in the range specified in the server.ini are listened by the server only for udp6 addresses as my ISP does not really support ipv6 addressing. Even if I disabled the ipv6 on the server side, the ports are still listened only for udp6. This may be the cause of the problem. Here is the netstat output:

It may be a potential bug that errors occur when the range of ports to listen on the server side is too large. You may fix this by adding a limitation on the port range.

when my config looks like this:

port range to listen hopstart = 40000 hopend = 50000

error output

server side:
