Error :[Realm.Sync.Client.Network - error] Failed to resolve ‘ws.services.cloud.mongodb.com:443’: Host not found (authoritative)
*Environment:

  • react-native: 0.75.4
  • Previous Behavior: Worked fine for the last 2 years without issues.
  • Current Behavior: Now crashes in offline mode instead of using local Realm DB.
  • Expected Behavior: Should function offline and sync when internet is restored.
  • Steps Taken:
    • Verified app works online.
    • Checked Realm offline-first configurations.
    • No recent major changes in Realm setup.
  • Need Help With:
    • Why is this issue occurring now?
    • How to prevent crashes in offline mode?
    • Any new configurations needed?

Looking forward to your support.

Hi @Rajan_Shah1 ,

It’s difficult to diagnose the issue without more context (for example, a full stack trace, not just a single line), if you can we suggest to open a Support case for us to obtain details that you may not want to make public.

As a first quick glance, can you publish the configuration you’re opening the Realm with? In detail, a good one should have

        newRealmFileBehavior: { type: 'downloadBeforeOpen', timeOutBehavior: 'throwException' },
        existingRealmFileBehavior: { type: 'openImmediately', timeOutBehavior: 'openLocalRealm' },

Alternatively, you can try to post an issue on the Realm JS SDK Github repository: please note, however, that Device Sync is a deprecated product.

The issue is not resolved yet, Nothing is changed in my code and realm version is also not updated
import React, { memo } from ‘react’;
import AppSync from ‘./AppSync’;
import { UserProvider } from ‘@realm/react’;
import { BottomSheetModalProvider } from ‘@gorhom/bottom-sheet’;
import { RealmContext } from ‘…/…/…/realm-database/RealmConfig’;
import RealmAuthCheck from ‘./RealmAuthCheck’;
import { OpenRealmBehaviorType } from ‘realm’;

export default memo(() => {
const { RealmProvider } = RealmContext;

const handleSyncError = async (session: any, syncError: any) => {
	
	if (syncError.name === 'ClientReset') {
		console.log('syncError ClientReset', syncError);
		try {
			console.log('error type is ClientReset....');
		} catch (err) {
			console.error('catch error', err);
		}
	} else {
		console.log('other sync error', syncError);
		// ...handle other error types
	}
};

return (
	<UserProvider fallback={RealmAuthCheck}>
		<RealmProvider
			sync={{
				flexible: true,
				onError: handleSyncError,
				newRealmFileBehavior: { type: 'downloadBeforeOpen', timeOutBehavior: 'throwException' },
				existingRealmFileBehavior: { type: 'openImmediately', timeOutBehavior: 'openLocalRealm' },
			}}
		>
			<BottomSheetModalProvider>
				<AppSync />
			</BottomSheetModalProvider>
		</RealmProvider>
	</UserProvider>
);

});

This occurs only when device goes offline

Hi @Rajan_Shah1 ,

As you’re going offline, this is definitely expected, and is just an indication, the issue is how this error is handled.

As I wrote before, one line of error tells nothing, a full stack trace would be more useful to understand what happens after that error that’s leading to the crash: without that, it’s all a matter of guessing.

Have you tried to remove the onError callback altogether?

:small_blue_diamond: Breaking it Down:
Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) → A segmentation fault occurred.

code 2 (SEGV_ACCERR) → Access error, meaning the process tried to read/write memory it wasn’t allowed to.

fault addr 0x6fdb188d08 → The invalid memory address the app tried to access.

tid 32243 (mqt_js) → The crash happened in the JavaScript thread (mqt_js).
