getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

The error occurs when the DNS resolution fails. Check if you can wget (or curl) the api url from the command line. Changing the DNS server and testing it might help.

rest-client's RestClient needs the http: scheme when resolving the URL. It calls Net::HTTP for you, which doesn't want the http: part, but rest-client takes care of that.

Is the URL the actual one you are attempting to reach? example.org is a valid domain used for testing and documentation and is reachable; I'd expect the "api" and "api_endpoint" parts to fail and see that when I try to reach them.

require 'socket'

IPSocket.getaddress('example.org') # => "2620:0:2d0:200::10"
IPSocket.getaddress('api.example.org') # => 
# ~> -:7:in `getaddress': getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known (SocketError)
# ~>    from -:7:in `<main>'

Here's what I get using Curl:

greg-mbp-wireless:~ greg$ curl api.example.org/api_endpoint
curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'api.example.org'
greg-mbp-wireless:~ greg$ curl example.org/api_endpoint

I ran into a similar situation today - deploying an app to a mac os x server, and receiving the 'getaddrinfo' message when I tried to access an external api. It turns out that the error occurs when the ssh session that originally launched the app is no longer active. That's why everything works perfectly if you ssh into your server and run commands manually (or launch the server manually) - as long as you keep your ssh session alive, this error won't occur.

Whether this is a bug or a quirk in OS X, I'm not sure. Here's the page that led me to the solution - http://lists.apple.com/archives/unix-porting/2010/Jul/msg00001.html

All I had to do was update my capistrano task to launch the app using 'nohup'. So changing

run "cd #{current_path} && RAILS_ENV=production unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -D"

to

run "cd #{current_path} && RAILS_ENV=production nohup unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -D"

did the trick for me.

Hope this helps somebody - it was quite a pain to figure out!

I fixed this problem simply by closing and reopening the Terminal.

I restarted my computer (Mac Mountain Lion) and the problem fixed itself. Something having to do with the shell thinking it was disconnected from the internet I think.

Restarting your shell in some definite way may solve this problem as well. Simply opening up a new session/window however did not work.

I got the same error when I check the localhost is set in hosts file it is somehow not set. Setting localhost to 127.0.0.1 solved it.

sudo vi /etc/hosts
>>

127.0.0.1       localhost

To avoid this problem, we can bind to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost:

bin/rails server -b 127.0.0.1

I was seeing this error unrelated to rails. It turned out my test was trying to use a port that was too high (greater than 65535).

This code will produce the error in question

require 'socket'
Socket.getaddrinfo("127.0.0.1", "65536")

I got the error while trying to develop while disconnected to the Internet. However, the website I was working on needs to be able to talk to some other websites, so it choked when it couldn't do so. Connecting to the internet fixed the error.

If all of the above fails, try to convert to UNIX Line Endings, or do:

brew install dos2unix
sudo dos2unix -c mac /private/etc/hosts

Maybe the hosts encoding is wrong.

hope this helps

I had this problem running rake db:create. This page clued me into the DNS issue. I checked my VPN connection and found it was disconnected for some reason. I reconnected and now rake worked without a hitch.

For me, I had to change a line of code in my local_env.yml to get the rspec tests to run.

I had originally had:

REDIS_HOST: 'redis'

and changed it to:

REDIS_HOST: 'localhost'

and the test ran fine.
