You probably don’t have the INTERNET permission. Try adding this to your AndroidManifest.xml file, right before </manifest>:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Note: the above doesn’t have to be right before the </manifest> tag, but that is a good / correct place to put it.

Note: if this answer doesn’t help in your case, read the other answers!

I’ve seen this problem in the emulator as well. In my case, it is caused by launching the emulator, then putting the computer to sleep or changing the network connection (going from work to home, etc), then attempting to use the same emulator again. Closing and re-launching the emulator resolves the problem in this case.

It is WiFi bug due to wifi disable or not properly connected.

Simply Reconnect the wifi will solve the issue.

Unable to resolve host “”; No address associated with hostname

you must have to check below code here on your manifest :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

and most important at least for me:-

enabled wifi connection or internet connection on your mobile device

Check you have:

1- Access to Internet connectivity.

2- The permission for internet is present in the manifest.

3- The url host is valid and registered in a trusted domain name server.

Sometimes, although you add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> in the AndroidManifest and you have a WiFi connection, this exception can be thrown. In my case, I have turned off WiFi and then turned it on again. This resolved the error. Weird solution, but sometimes it works.

"" it seems you are trying to resolve this host , which is invalid.

Check for rss URL

Update
Following are the possibilities

1 Your browser is configured with proxy, app not

System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "my.proxyhost.com");
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "1234");

2 Your browser has access to internet. not app

3 can be an SSL issue if URL is secured

It could be due to below reasons: —

  1. Either you dont have INTERNET permission in manifest file. If so then please use this statement <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

  2. Or you are connected to a network but your internet connection is not working. Like you are connected to a Wi-Fi but it doesnt have internet connection or Mobile data on your phone is ON but you dont have data connectivity on your phone.

Point# 2 is interesting and its not assumption, I have tested the same at my end.

Hope this will help you

If you are running the app on an emulator, make sure that it is properly connected to the internet. If it is not, the easiest way of solving it is reopening the emulator or creating a new device.

This has been a long term problem with apt, and Ubuntu has never fixed it. Apt doesn’t seem to use the same DNS servers that the internal system does — ‘ping ‘ returns a correct IP address. Apt-get claims that the hostname isn’t found.

«Something wicked happened resolving ‘extras.ubuntu.com:http» (Which sounds, somewhat, like it’s trying to resolve a .com:http domain, which isn’t a valid TLD)

To modify /etc/hosts, use the following:

Ping each of the names that are failing to resolve —
PING extras.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.33) 56(84) bytes of data.

Use your favourite editor, such as vi — ‘sudo vi /etc/hosts’.

Scroll down to the end, and add a line such as the following

91.189.88.33 extras.ubuntu.com  (with the appropriate name and IP address. IP is first) 

Save the file, then re-run apt-get. Once you’ve run apt-get, edit /etc/hosts again, and comment out the line with a hash mark — #. (or delete it entirely)

#91.189.88.33 extras.ubuntu.com

The reason to comment out/delete the line is that Ubuntu apparently shuffles their servers around randomly, and that might not be the correct IP the next time.

The errors Failed host lookup: 'api.xyz.com' and OS Error: No address associated with hostname usually mean that your DNS lookup fails.
As hinted by OS Error this is usually a system-level error and nothing specific to http or Dart.

To diagnose this on your system you can try check e.g. your browser can DNS resolve the host in question. And/or if you’re on a Mac/Linux system you might be able to run dig api.xyz.com to see if that resolves.

When doing anything network, or I/O in general, it’s a good idea to program very defensively and assume the I/O can sporadically fail or time out.
You can try see if you can make your code degrade more gracefully in cases when e.g. DNS isn’t working as expected.

I’ll go ahead and close this issue since I don’t think there’s anything to be done in http

that was valuable insight, thanks @cskau-g man. I was worried about this issue.
It was DNS, I was messing with my DNS settings.

people kept spamming about the missing Internet Permission. That wasn’t my case.
It was hard to find this info. I’ll set the DNS to default settings and see if it’s resolved.

Also if their is a problem in the API itself the. This error might occur……….

@mariokresic

I’ve faced this issue after trying to build my flutter apk for the first time, with the intention to test it on a real android device.

After building, the issue occurred on both devices (real and emulator).

  • There are a couple of AndroidManifest.xml in my project, and they all contain <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> .
  • Both real device and emulator phones were connected to the internet so that wasn’t the problem.

What helped was reinstalling the http package.

For our app users using Jio network this issue happens some times. On same device it works some time, and does not work some time. Server has ipv4-only ip. Only A record is set on DNS server.

I solved it by changing api url. Jio uses some SNI url filtering mechanism.

So for some reason my previous api endpoint was not being hit.

@Mohamed-Reda1010

i tried every thing , nothing work !!

The «Unable to resolve host» error occurs when Retrofit2 & OkHttp3 are unable to resolve the hostname specified in the API endpoint URL. This can happen due to a variety of reasons, such as incorrect URL, network connectivity issues, or incorrect DNS settings. In this article, we will discuss several methods to fix this error and successfully establish a connection to the API endpoint.

Method 1: Verify API Endpoint URL

If you are facing the error «Unable to resolve host <host-name>: No address associated with hostname» while using Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 in your Android application, it means that the URL you are trying to access is not valid or cannot be resolved. One way to solve this problem is by verifying the API endpoint URL. Here’s how you can do it:

Step 1: Create an instance of your Retrofit client and set the base URL to the API endpoint URL you are trying to access.

Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
    .baseUrl("https://api.example.com/")
    .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
    .build();

Step 2: Create an interface that defines the API endpoints you want to access. Use the base URL you set in step 1 as the relative URL for each endpoint.

public interface MyApiService {
    @GET("users/{id}")
    Call<User> getUser(@Path("id") int userId);
}

Step 3: Use the retrofit.create() method to create an instance of your API service interface.

MyApiService apiService = retrofit.create(MyApiService.class);

Step 4: Call one of the API endpoints defined in your interface using the apiService instance you created in step 3.

Call<User> call = apiService.getUser(1);
call.enqueue(new Callback<User>() {
    @Override
    public void onResponse(Call<User> call, Response<User> response) {
        // Handle successful response
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailure(Call<User> call, Throwable t) {
        // Handle failed response
    }
});

By following these steps, you can verify the API endpoint URL and ensure that it is valid and can be resolved. If the error persists, you may need to check your network connection or DNS settings.

Method 2: Check Network Connectivity

If you are getting the «Unable to resolve host» error with Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 in Android, it means that the hostname you are trying to connect to is not resolving to an IP address. This can happen due to various reasons, such as network connectivity issues or DNS problems. In this tutorial, we will show you how to fix this error by checking the network connectivity before making the network request.

Step 1: Add Network Permission to Manifest

Before we start, make sure you have added the following network permission to your AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Step 2: Check Network Connectivity

To check the network connectivity, we will use the ConnectivityManager class. This class provides information about the current network state, such as whether the device is connected to the internet or not. Here is an example code to check the network connectivity:

private boolean isNetworkConnected() {
    ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
    NetworkInfo activeNetwork = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    return activeNetwork != null && activeNetwork.isConnected();
}

This method returns a boolean value indicating whether the device is connected to the internet or not.

Step 3: Make Network Request

Now that we have checked the network connectivity, we can make the network request using Retrofit2 and OkHttp3. Here is an example code to make a GET request:

private void makeNetworkRequest() {
    if (isNetworkConnected()) {
        Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
                .baseUrl("https://api.example.com/")
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
                .build();

        ApiService apiService = retrofit.create(ApiService.class);
        Call<ApiResponse> call = apiService.getData();

        call.enqueue(new Callback<ApiResponse>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(Call<ApiResponse> call, Response<ApiResponse> response) {
                if (response.isSuccessful()) {
                    // Handle success response
                } else {
                    // Handle error response
                }
            }

            @Override
            public void onFailure(Call<ApiResponse> call, Throwable t) {
                // Handle network failure
            }
        });
    } else {
        // Handle no network connectivity
    }
}

In this example, we first check the network connectivity using the isNetworkConnected() method. If the device is connected to the internet, we create a Retrofit instance with the base URL and Gson converter factory. We then create an instance of our API service interface and make the network request using the getData() method. Finally, we handle the response and error using the onResponse() and onFailure() methods respectively.

Method 3: Update DNS Settings

To fix the error «Unable to resolve host: No address associated with hostname» with Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 in Android, you can update the DNS settings of your device. Here are the steps to do it:

  1. Open the Settings app on your Android device.
  2. Scroll down and tap on «Network & internet».
  3. Tap on «Advanced» at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Tap on «Private DNS».
  5. Select the option «Private DNS provider hostname».
  6. Enter the DNS server address you want to use. For example, you can use «8.8.8.8» for Google’s DNS server.
  7. Tap on «Save».

After updating the DNS settings, you can test your Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 code to see if the error is resolved. Here is an example code snippet that shows how to use Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 to make a network request:

val retrofit = Retrofit.Builder()
    .baseUrl("https://api.example.com/")
    .client(OkHttpClient.Builder().build())
    .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
    .build()

val api = retrofit.create(ApiService::class.java)

api.getData().enqueue(object : Callback<DataResponse> {
    override fun onResponse(call: Call<DataResponse>, response: Response<DataResponse>) {
        // Handle success response
    }

    override fun onFailure(call: Call<DataResponse>, t: Throwable) {
        // Handle error response
    }
})

In this example, ApiService is an interface that defines the API endpoints, DataResponse is the data model for the API response, and getData() is a method in the ApiService interface that makes a network request using Retrofit2 and OkHttp3.

By following the steps to update the DNS settings and using the example code snippet, you should be able to fix the error «Unable to resolve host: No address associated with hostname» with Retrofit2 and OkHttp3 in Android.

Method 4: Use IP Address instead of Hostname

If you are facing the error «Unable to resolve host <host-name>: No address associated with hostname» with Retrofit2 and OkHttp3, you can try using the IP address instead of the hostname to fix the issue. Here are the steps to do it:

  1. Get the IP address of the server you want to connect to. You can use the ping command in the terminal or command prompt to get the IP address.

  2. Replace the hostname with the IP address in the Retrofit2 BaseUrl annotation. For example:

@BaseUrl("http://192.168.0.1/api/")
  1. Create a new instance of OkHttpClient and set the Dns to use the IP address instead of the hostname. For example:
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder()
        .dns(new Dns() {
            @Override
            public List<InetAddress> lookup(String hostname) throws UnknownHostException {
                if (hostname.equals("your-hostname.com")) {
                    return Arrays.asList(InetAddress.getByAddress(new byte[]{XXX, XXX, XXX, XXX}));
                }
                return Dns.SYSTEM.lookup(hostname);
            }
        })
        .build();

Replace your-hostname.com with the actual hostname and XXX with the IP address octets.

  1. Use the new OkHttpClient instance with the Retrofit2 Builder. For example:
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
        .baseUrl("http://your-hostname.com/api/")
        .client(client)
        .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
        .build();

That’s it! Now you should be able to connect to the server using the IP address instead of the hostname.

Note: This solution is only recommended if you cannot fix the DNS resolution issue on your network. Using the IP address directly may cause issues if the IP address changes or if the server has multiple IP addresses.
