[SOLVED] flutter android emulator not working with Appwrite

[hoary plinth]

Hi All,

I am kinda new to coding with flutter and appwrite, I have managed to create a code that works with windows, I have set up a database and user authentication but none of it works on the android emulator, any idea why?

[tawny shoal]

Are you getting any errors in the logs? Are you able to browse with the chrome app in the emulator?

[hoary plinth]

do you mean if I can launch it on web, and no I don't seem to be getting any errors

[tawny shoal]

I'm asking if you're able to access the internet on your emulator

Also I'm asking about the error in case an exception is causing the mobile app to fail

[hoary plinth]

yes, it can connect to internet

I don't see any errors

[hoary plinth]

in debug console

[tawny shoal]

Yes. Can you share your authentication code? Also which version of appwrite are you using as well as the client sdk version?

[hoary plinth]

Yes, I will send it later, thanks

@hoary plinth Did you add internet permission to the android manifest file?

If not, make sure to add it and rebuild the APK (you will probably need to uninstall it from emulator).

[hoary plinth]

I haven't added it but it has internet connection, or does it not matter?

[marble cypress]

You still need to add such permission

[hoary plinth]

like this ?

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:label="tripplanner24"

[marble cypress]

I think yes, specifically the line

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

[hoary plinth]

yeah I put it but still my android emulator doesn't work

[marble cypress]

Are you using flutter?

[hoary plinth]

yes

[marble cypress]

If so, you need to do flutter clean flutter pub get uninstall the app from emulator and then run it again

[hoary plinth]

ok, I will try

[marble cypress]

If it's still not working after that, show the error you're getting

[hoary plinth]

this is what's showing up in debug console and it just keeps spinning in emulator

[hoary plinth]

I/flutter ( 8308): Appwrite error during account.get(): AppwriteException: , ClientException with SocketException: Failed host lookup: 'cloud.appwrite.io' (OS Error: No address associated with hostname, errno = 7)

I think this could be the error

[hoary plinth]

I did not have adb set up properly and for some reason after setting it up the android emulator started working with app write

Check also if you have added the platform to the console

[hoary plinth]

I have added flutter to the console

[hoary plinth]

should it not include windows, android, ios, etc.?

[marble cypress]

You need to create different platforms for the different platforms

[cunning berry]

In console you can add different platform in flutter such as macos windows android iOS linux so try that

[hoary plinth]

like this right?

[cunning berry]

Yes

[cunning berry]

In android did add some request in the AndroidManifest file
