Hostname was not found in DNS cache error port 8080

This error usually occurs in network-related cases when a program or service tries to establish a network connection to a remote host using a hostname.

Some of the common reasons behind this error include:

• The hostname we are trying to access may be incorrect or misspelled. So, re-check the hostname.
• Sometimes the DNS configuration on our system may be incorrect. So, make sure that the DNS settings configuratons are correct, and the DNS server is reachable and working correctly.
• In some cases, there may be an issue with the network connectivity preventing DNS resolution. So, we have to check our network connection, firewall settings, or any network issues that may be affecting DNS lookups.
• Furthermore, the DNS cache on our system may not be up to date. We can try flushing the DNS cache to force our system to perform a fresh DNS lookup. On Linux systems, we can use the sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved command.
• In case we are behind a firewall or proxy server, they might be blocking DNS requests or affecting hostname resolution. So, we have to check our firewall and proxy settings.
