Can't use DNS name instead of ip for jdbc connection on local network

favorite












I have the following connectionString for my db:



jdbc:sqlserver://{someIpAdress}:1433;database=db


I want to resolve someIpAdress to the DNS name instead. By running nslookup on the ip I get the name for that address. But replacing the Ip with the DNS name results in a failing connection for the jdbc connection.



I have tried modifying the file /etc/resolv.conf which now allows me to ping the DNS name, but it seems like the configuration should be done with netplan for Ubuntu 18.04LTS. Changes to interfaces in /etc/network didn't work either.



Some of the guides I've looked at so far:
https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-set-dns-search-list-for-host-name-lookup/



Any help is much appreciated

          If you use 18.04 there is some bug of auto generate resolv.conf file. Create symlink which following command fixs this problem.



          sudo ln -s /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf


          But if you don't have DNS server you can edit /etc/hosts



          127.0.0.1   localhost
          127.0.1.1 com01

          # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
          ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
          fe00::0 ip6-localnet
          ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
          ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
          ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

          192.168.168.88 lab01


          From above configuration com01 is your computer name 192.168.168.88 is your server IP address and lab01 is your server name.



          Hope this help.

          • Just make sure that resolv.conf is linked to path /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf if you use 18.04. It's always not getting right DNS if it isn't linked to the path and you can remove /etc/resolv.conf in case it already exist and run command to link file again.
