Solution for your problem (problem was php_network_getaddress: getaddrinfo failed ) by aniket

Hi

I had this problem couple of days back when i changed my old server with new one.

problem was php_network_getaddress: getaddrinfo failed.

This can be resolved by addin following entry in your hosts file

127.0.0.1 yourdomainname:80


you can replace yournamedomain for eg. aniketmehta.com or anything else and port num on which your webserver is receiving requests for your domain name

typical path for hosts file on windows is

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

add above entry and problem will be resolved.

This can be bug in php since i was setting this up on windows server with dns installed on this server. But php was not able to find it by default.

Hope this help someone else like me.

Thanks
aniket
