nrf9160 HTTPs_CLIENT example not working

[_bhanu]

Hi,

I'm using nrf9160dk  and i want to run HTTPS_CLIENT example to send some ping.

when i run the HTTPS_CLIENT  I'm getting error:-  "getaddrinfo() failed, err 0" 

i haven't change anything in code expect  HTTPS_HOSTNAME.

please help to clear this Error.

Thanks

Hi Bhanu,

Please check the following points.

1) Please use the pure HTTPS_HOSTNAME "herokuapp.com". Your local network may not provide DNS, please try with the server IP directly if it still does not work.

2) Use the send_buf to send something like the below. You also need to change cert[] with CA used by your server domain. I suggest you verify with some REST clients like Postman first to make sure the server side works.

#define HTTP_REQUEST   
	"POST /api/sensor_reading_https/"                                     \
	"HEAD / HTTP/1.1\r\n"                                                 \
	"Host: " HTTPS_HOSTNAME ":80\r\n"                                     \
	"Connection: close\r\n\r\n"

Best regards,

our host name doesn't have certificates we are using https with out certificates

And i have tested the host name in postman application and it working fine that.

thanks
