[Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known.

[vikasg603]

As we know, genymotion provides us with the Genymotion Cloud service through multiple cloud providers. Currently, I am using https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-tsr5r2gq25hd6

I can connect my device with the ADB. Still, while running androidviewclient or dump, I am continually getting an error message "[Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known."

I also tried adding a serial no, but no luck and getting the same error message.

Is there any way to resolve this?

Are you using a SSH tunnel? Can you show some details?

[vikasg603]

I tried using both the way. 1) Connecting adb directly 2) Connecting using ssh

I guess androidviewclient is not able to connect with the adb outside localhost, but not even sure why it's not connecting even with ssh.

I tested creating a tunnel like this

ssh -i key.pem -NL 5555:localhost:5555 shell@xxxx.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com

and then

dump

worked fine

My bad for the ssh username; I wrote ubuntu rather than the shell. Sorry for the confusion.
