RTIOsapiSocket_getHostByName failed when using DTLS on Raspberry Pi 3B

Hi,

I'm trying to run rtiperftest application with DTLS transport on a Raspberriy Pi board. But I got the error that gethostbyname failed. Please see below:

pi@raspberrypi:~/app $ ./perftest_cpp -nic eth0 -transport DTLS -transportVerbosity 6

Let me investigate this issue and get back to you, can you try in the meanwhile using the ip instead of the name of the interface?

Pub: "-transport DTLS -peer dtls://$IP_ADDR -transportCertAuthority ./resource/secure/cacert.pem -transportCertFile ./resource/secure/pub.pem -transportPrivateKey ./resource/secure/pubkey.pem"

Sub: "-transport DTLS -peer dtls://$IP_ADDR"

Thank you. I'll try what you suggested.

Hi Javi,

The problem persists even if I add the peer address. And actually, this issue doesn't occur on my x64 Ubuntu machine. So I guess this problem is probably caused by the platform. 

Thanks,

Zhuangwei

Let me try it myself on a Raspberry pi as well.

Hi!

I was able to run in the raspberry pi without any issues, could it be due to something specific to your terminal? This is puzzling me...

Hi Javi,

After reinstalling all libraries, the problem was resolved. I probably linked the wrong library before. I apologize for the confusion.

Thanks,
