[dbint] Error no. 32 while creating inet6num objects

Dear Moritz,

Thank you very much for your help in debugging.

The problem is that the object you are trying to create does exist, but the textual representation of the primary key is different:

inet6num:       2001:780:130:0:0:0:0:0/48
netname:        MAT-IT-V6-NET
descr:          MAT IT-Solutions
country:        DE
admin-c:        ML98-TEST
tech-c:         ML98-TEST
status:         ASSIGNED
mnt-by:         NORIS-MNT
changed:        mlenz at noris.net 20121219
source:         TEST

This is a known limit of the legacy whois-server software. We are working hard to fix this issue, until then, please always use the same textual representation 
of the inet6num as you already have in the database.

Kind regards,
Agoston Horvath
