How to resolve - SocketException: Failed host lookup: 'server.com' (OS Error: nodename nor servname provided, or not known, errno = 8)

Question

I am pretty new to flutter development. I am getting the following error on connecting to the server:

SocketException: Failed host lookup: 'server.com' (OS Error: nodename nor servname provided, or not known, errno = 8)

I already referred the below link, but this was of no help for me

How to solve SocketException: Failed host lookup: 'www.xyz.com' (OS Error: No address associated with hostname, errno = 7)

Currently I am testing my application on iOS simulator. Below are the versions I am using,

• Http version - http: ^0.12.2
• Flutter version - 1.22.4(Stable version)

The server is connecting when I am using mobile hotspot with my company's VPN enabled. But, I get this error when I switch to the company LAN.

All the APIs are working fine in postman when connected to LAN. I am using Android Studio. Is there any specific configuration to be made in flutter? Please let me know...

Answer 1

Internet is off or signal is not strong. Check your LAN connection.
