Hello everyone, I am currently somewhat struggling to get the Android emulator to use a custom DNS server, which is running on localhost (127.0.0.1).
As of now, I have tried various approaches trying to convince the emulator to use my DNS server, so far without success. In the end, it always boils down to the following error message: ### WARNING: can't resolve DNS server name 'localhost' ### WARNING: will use system default DNS server localhost, however, resolves correctly when supplied to nslookup: | $ nslookup localhost | Server: dnszrh01.xxx | Address: 10.xxx.xxx.xxx | | Non-authoritative answer: | Name: localhost.xxx | Address: 127.0.0.1 Using the IP address instead of the hostname also does not help much, it just changes the error message to: ### WARNING: can't resolve DNS server name '127.0.0.1' ### WARNING: will use system default DNS server The extra command line I am using to start the emulator reads: -http- proxy http://proxy.xxx:8080 -dns-server 127.0.0.1 -debug-proxy - verbose This is happening with Android emulator version 5.0 (build_id ECLAIR-24846) running on Windows. Any hint how to get this working is much appreciated! Thanks, Thilo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
