[BUG] Status Check returns "EAI_again -3001" when using .local url instead of IP

[bverkron]

Environment

Self-Hosted (Docker)

System

Docker (version TBD)

Version

2.1.1

Describe the problem

When I use the .local url for my Unraid server (http://unraid.local) the status check will briefly go grey and say "request timed out" before switching red with the error "EAI_again -3001"

Using the IP address works and I am able to access the Unraid ui via the .local url in my browser without issue. Using unraid.net (their public website) works so it seems to be something with the .local url specifically.

+1, just ran into the same issue with .local addresses.

For me this works without problems.

However I had to set max-redirects.

Also try with http://unraid.local

Have you set the dns server on the host?
Also make sure the host can access that url by running nslookup unraid.local

Worked for me too.
