Changed TCP/IP address of Channels DVR server now getting errors

Channels DVR Server Troubleshooting
#1

I am doing a trial on Channels DVR, currently running on a Mac Mini. I just changed the IP address to static and rebooted. Trying to watch channels from an iPhone, I am now getting an error when I hit Watch on anything. The guide is showing and I can watch recordings, but none of the live streams work. I'm only using TV Everywhere channels presently. I rebooted everything a couple of times. The errors look mostly like this - a ton of them...

2020/07/06 13:23.32.691751 (ERR) Failed to fetch station 62077: Get "http:/data.tmsapi.com/v1.1/stations/62077?api_key=x26sg2rpk8qyuyn9ddzwmsuu&lineupId=": dial tcp: lookup data.tmsapi.com no such host

That is from the log. The error shown on the iPhone has something about Adobe in the url. Any idea how to fix this?

When you set a static IP on your DVR mac, you did not add a DNS server and now it is not able to access the internet.

Argh.... can't believe I forgot that. Trying to be to speedy. Thanks for the fantastic and quick support. All working again now.
