Question

I ve created an app that loads a question from my web services  and it works fine  But  sometimes it crashes and I do not get the reason why this is happening  especially because I have also given it the required permissions  It works fine  but at random  it crashes and gives me this report   private void sendContinentQuestions int id           TODO Auto-generated method stub        Get the data

I had the same problem  but with small difference  I had added NetworkConnectionCallback to check situation when internet connection had changed at runtime  and checking like this before sending all requests   private fun isConnected    Boolean       val activeNetwork   cManager activeNetworkInfo     return activeNetwork    null  amp  amp  activeNetwork isConnected     There can be state like CONNECTING  you can see i  when you turn on wifi  icon starts blinking  after connecting to network  image is static   So  we have two different states  one CONNECT another CONNECTING  and when Retrofit tried to send request internet connection is disabled and it throws UnknownHostException   I forgot to add another type of exception in function which was responsible for sending requests   try    for example  retrofit call   catch  e  Exception            is UnknownHostException - gt   Unknown host           is ConnectException - gt   No internet           else - gt   Unknown exception           It s just a tricky moment that can by related with this problem   Hope  I will help somebody

I encountered this error when running my Android app on my home WiFi  then trying to run it on different WiFi without closing my simulator   Simply closing the simulator and re-launching the app worked for me

I encountered this problem too  reconnecting the WiFi can solve this   For us  we can check if the phone can resolve the host to IP when we start application  If it cannot resolve  tell the user to check the WiFi and then exit   I hope it helps

I had the same problem  java net UnknownHostException  Unable to resolve host            I m running Visual Studio 2019 and Xamarin   I also switched back to my WiFi but was on a hot spot   I solved this by clean swiping the emulator   Restore to factory settings   Then re-running visual studio xamarin app which wil redeploy your app again to the fresh emulator   It worked   I thought I was going to battle for days to solve this   Luckily this post pointed me in the right direction   I could not understand how it worked perfectly before and then stopped with no code change   This is my code for reference   using var response   await httpClient GetAsync sb ToString     string apiResponse   await response Content ReadAsStringAsync

I had the same exception in the simulator  Android Studio on OSX  but connecting to the same URL on the iOS simulator worked fine    Looks like it all stemmed from the fact I d be running the simulator whilst connected to a personal hotspot for my internet connection and then came back later while connected to wifi and the simulator didn t like the new internet connection for some reason  seems like it thought the old hotspot was the current connection  which was no longer working    Closing and relaunching the simulator worked
