Server - WAMP
Host - localhost/127.0.0.1/10.0.2.2(emulators ip address for hosts local server)
App - android(frontend), laravel(backend)
IDE - Android Studio
Ive tried multiple things to resolve this issue, from turning off my firewall to creating a virtual host with both a named virtual host and with the ip address 10.0.2.2. through configuring the host file and editing both the http.vhosts.conf and httpd.conf files appropriately.
I have seen the following threads and none provided the solution
Connection to LocalHost/10.0.2.2 from Android Emulator timed out
How to connect emulator to laravel server localhost:8000
The Error looks like this -
09-03 17:42:37.886 23713-23739/com.geniusesafrica.geniuses I/OpenGLRenderer: Initialized EGL, version 1.4

And Here is the retrofit builder -
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("http://10.0.2.2:8000/api/")
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create(gson))
.build();
I can access my laravel app from the Machines browser and from postman as well and i can make requests from my emulator to remote addresses.
On the emulators browser the same url is giving the following error -
net:ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
then its timing out with a
net:ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
Any help will be appreciated.
