I have Windows XP installed in my system.I have installed tortoisehg-2.10-hg-2.8-x86.msi. I have checkpoint vpn1-secuRemote installed on my system. I am trying to clone a project.But when i clone a project i get the following error

URLError: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed [command returned code 255 Tue Jul 01 22:40:02 2014]

The same worked when i connect from my office. The mercurial.ini is as follows

# Generated by TortoiseHg settings dialog
[ui]
username = avinash
verbose = True

Since it is windows xp i have placed my mercurial.ini in C:\Documents and Settings\avinash\mercurial.ini.

I have gone through several links in stackoverflow. But was not able to figure out . Can anyone help please. Thanks in advance

    Questions about general computing hardware and software are off-topic for Stack Overflow unless they directly involve tools used primarily for programming. You may be able to get help on Super User. – AStopher Jul 03 '14 at 12:56

"getaddrinfo failed" means you have problem not with TortoiseHG per se, but with resolver (DNS from client-side): no conversion hostname -> IP.

  • What do you mean by fix it asking question on SU. I am not clear with statement.Can you please elaborate – Avinash Reddy Jul 03 '14 at 11:27
  • @AvinashReddy I have already specified in one of your previous questions, that Stack Overflow is for *asking programming questions*. Super User is the same as Stack Overflow, but covers general computing; please ask there, instead of here. – AStopher Jul 03 '14 at 12:55
