Warning: Unable to complete network request to host "abc".

[srinu]

Hello,

We had one webserver based on a linux machine. The website is fully
function and designed by a different person. Now we moved the machine
from one IP to another one.
I changed the machine ip address and the website is working partially.
That site is working in between pages verywell. But once I give some
input and requrest for data it is failing with the following message:


Warning: ibase_pconnect( ): Unable to complete network request to host
"abc". Failed to establish a connection. Connection refused in ***.php
on line 347


Following this I am getting errors for ibase_trans(), ibase_commit()
and ibase_close().


What i need to do in this case apart from changing the ip address. The
new ip address is in different domain but the machine name is still
same.


Regards,
Srinu

They probably just give errors because you couldn't connect.

It sounds like the scripts cannot resolve host "abc" anymore.

You have 2 options as far as I can see:
1) Make sure the machine hosting php DOES know how to find "abc"

or

2) Try to connect by IP-num of the machine hosting IBase istead of "abc"

Since you didn't give the code with connectstring to us, for understandable
reasons, it is also possible there is a fault in there, but that is hard to
say.

Try 2 first because that is the easiest way for you I expect.

Good luck.
