Subject INET/INET_connect: gethostbyname failed, error code = 2
Author k_smith_000
I've got a lot of following error messages in my firebird.log file:
localhost.localdomain Fri Jun 13 09:04:05 2008
INET/INET_connect: gethostbyname failed, error code = 2

localhost.localdomain Fri Jun 13 09:04:51 2008
INET/INET_connect: gethostbyname failed, error code = 2

localhost.localdomain Fri Jun 13 09:04:53 2008
INET/INET_connect: gethostbyname failed, error code = 2


The gethostbyname function retrieves host information corresponding to
a host name from a host database.

Is that problem connected to the Firebird server or Firebird client
machine ? Should I change configuration of DNS server or edit host
file (question what should I change there ?) Why do does those errors
occurs so often ?

It would be great if you can help me.
