Some problems with the cloudDB component

I checked out Kodular Fenix (v1.5D.0) Bug Tracker before creating a new topic

Describe your issue

The cloudDB component does not connect to the DEFAULT server, when I run in companion error: “java.net.unknowhostexception:cloudb.example.com”

Steps to reproduce the issue

Create simple project :


Expected Behaviour

With button 1, it writes and with button 2, it reads. When the data arrives, it displays the label.

Other details:

To get it to work here on Kodular, I created the same appinventor project, and it works fine on appinventor. When I import the .aia file from App Inventor to Kodular, it gives me a cloud db version error. It imported it, but it doesn’t work with the default. So I searched for the Redis server, and with the appinventor token,
it works. I think the default server needs to be updated in the component. Otherwise, set: redis server = clouddb.appinventor.mit.edu and token = C7uFtZt84pgNvR5Xmb97q5tkw97ceLAMLyY5msfg6ZByx2oLvAjGTcUo6V2s8FtMUtzwTH3WwPyiQp24MQJ9CqQfeyPyPkxwJv3ZfyfJzDDyn5AmdKLzY.

P.S. I checked that the server was online with power shell =Test-NetConnection clouddb.appinventor.mit.edu -Port 6381
Let me know what you think. I know a personal Redis server is better, but for some testing it’s more than fine.

Hi dear,

Correct, App Inventor projects use different component versions, so errors are likely to occur.
Usually, when moving from one builder to another, the best approach is to recreate the project.

Refer to this topic:


I can confirm the bug, because if we check the official documentation,


it states that if RedisServer is left as DEFAULT, the MIT server should be used, which currently does not happen.
