@jdaviescoates said in Regular short getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN outages:
I recently enabled email notifications on my Uptime Kuma and I've noticed there are regular short outages. Something to do with getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN
Any idea what's causing this and how to resolve it?
Apparently
EAI_AGAIN is a DNS lookup timed out error, means it is a network connectivity error or proxy related error.

Oh, and here it says:
EAI_AGAIN means the DNS server replied that it cannot currently fulfill the request. (If you want the hairy details, the RCODE field in the response is set to 2, SERVFAIL.)
There is no single solution because it entirely depends on why the DNS server sends that back. Maybe it's overloaded, maybe the network is down, maybe it got the same reply from its upstream server. Learn more
In general, the best you can do is wait a while and try again. Hope that helps.
I wonder what the specific issue is in my case (perhaps just network issues with Netcup?)
Same thoughts. I t has been addressed in the beautiful manner.
