Fetch error while querying from Gatsby

1

SOLVED. It’s a VScode / WSL issue. Long story, short… restart WSL every so often!

I just started getting this fetch error on queries that had been working until just now.

request to https://api.8base.com/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN api.8base.com api.8base.com:443

Any ideas?

Sebastion asked me to post the query. This is the Gatsby code:

import { graphql, useStaticQuery } from 'gatsby';

const usePosts = () => {
  const data = useStaticQuery(graphql`
    query {
      eightbase {
        postsList {
          items {
            id
            slug
            title
            published
          }
        }
      }
    }
  `);

  return data.eightbase.postsList.items.map(post => ({
    id: post.id,
    slug: post.slug,
    title: post.title,
    published: post.published
  }));
};

export default usePosts;

It was working fine a few hours ago. No changes.

Appears to not be an issue with 8base or Gatsby.

Using VScode and WSL… over the course of a couple hour session it lost the ability to do DNS lookups. Shutdown WSL, restarted, and we’re back in business.

Hey John! So it’s working now???

Yeah, very odd. I’m using the terminal in VScode into WSL. For some reason DNS lookups just stopped working until I restarted WSL. The error message was similar to other frameworks (non-Gatsby) and they mentioned the DNS possibility.

Sorry to hit ya with that one so late last night! :slight_smile:
