    Hi @nestormarius

    It seems the curl call have error when AIOS try to get the ip adddress.

    The error cURL error 6: getaddrinfo() thread failed to start. Seems required socket repair if I check online. please contact your hosting provider if the issue persists.

    Hi @hjogiupdraftplus

    Thank you for your quick reply. The error occurs because I am using a new method to block WordPress from storing IP addresses on the wp_comments table. Previously, I used another add-on that was kinda bloated so I replaced it with a lighter one that only does this thing.

    It appears that AIOS is not happy with this method of blocking IP address storing… Do you think is it something I can do so that AIOS no longer outputs these errors, besides removing the new add-on? Thanks!

    Hi @nestormarius,

    Here, AIOS uses the WordPress Requests WpOrg\Requests\Requests, which makes a curl call for external services (http://api.ipify.org/ , http://ipecho.net/plain, etc) to get the visitor IP. So it is hard to say some thing can be done in AIOS to stop this error.

    Is the issue the new Addon?

    Regards
