Database hostname not found
Hi, I am very confused on how to solve this error. I have verified the below details.
1. Yes I am connected to WiFi.
2. Yes the project is running on supabase (not paused)
3. The URL and API key is correct in my code
This is a flutter application running on android. It was working perfectly around 1month ago, I come back to it yesterday and I get this error, even though no changes were made in the code
Would appreciate help in resolving this please.

does your internet/network support ipv6? See this article https://supabase.com/docs/guides/troubleshooting/supabase--your-network-ipv4-and-ipv6-compatibility-cHe3BP

Supabase is the Postgres development platform providing all the backend features you need to build a product.
I went through it and I am using the client library supabase_flutter. So I am unsure why it isn't working still. The limit in settings for pooling is set to 30 (max limit for free plan)
what version of the cli are you on
Are you by any chance in UAE region? This seems to a DNS issue
Yes, I am in UAE
oh
If this app is in production, you can setup a reverse proxy to mitigate this https://github.com/singh-inder/proxy-to-supabase-cloud
if you're only running locally then you can change DNS server to 1.1.1.1, that has worked for many users
Will try the DNS method as its currently in dev stage
Thank you
Are you also on Etisalat/Du network or some other network?
DU
@Bob365 Sorry to ping you but if you replace
supabase.co
with supabase.in
in your supabase url, are you able to connect to supabase? Make sure to reset your DNS settingswill give that a try
Yes
it does work
I am able to login and use the database with supabase.in @inder this resolved my issue. Thank you so much for the help
Another supabase user found out about this workaround. All thanks to him https://discord.com/channels/839993398554656828/1412456024912302171
@Bob365 Hi bob, I had a chat with supabase support about this and they don't recommend to use
supabase.in
for the ISP issue. If you're working locally, then back to previous solution - update DNS server to 1.1.1.1 and use proxy in productionwill do. thank you
