Description
Hello,
I get the following message when I try to refresh the data in site configurations > browscap, “Couldn't check version: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known.” I’m testing my website on the localhost. Is this the reason why I’m getting the message?

This is a problem with DNS lookups on your local host. PHP is not configured properly for DNS or your DNS is not working. Try visiting http://browsers.garykeith.com/ or using the command line "tracert" tool for http://browsers.garykeith.com/ and see if that works. If so, then it's a PHP configuration problem.
