I am getting the following error message as I try to start Eikon API Proxy
An unexpected error has occured.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Eikon API Proxy will now exit.
Error code: 101
Error message: [IPCBus:Broker] error = Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND localhost on {"port":"49153"}
Pls help....
@rajanraju could you please check the localhost information is in your to your ```/etc/hosts``` file? If it is not, just add this line to the top:
127.0.0.1 localhost
Let me know if this helps.
@Zhenya Kovalyov thank you. The /etc/hosts file is empty and locked. Should I write a new file? As an aside, I deleted the proxy, reinstalled, switched off, restarted the machine. When I then ran the proxy, it, fortunately, started up. So now it's all working.
