java.io.IOException: sendto failed: EPERM (Operation not permitted)
Closed this issue · 9 comments
Hey, Thankyou for create the beautiful library.
But when I using it.
Sometime the user complaint to me a lot about cannot scan the device.
After check the logs I see that :
libcore.io.IoBridge.maybeThrowAfterSendto(IoBridge.java:724), libcore.io.IoBridge.sendto(IoBridge.java:691), java.net.PlainDatagramSocketImpl.send(PlainDatagramSocketImpl.java:126), java.net.DatagramSocket.send(DatagramSocket.java:721), io.resourcepool.ssdp.client.impl.SsdpClientImpl.sendOnAllInterfaces(SsdpClientImpl.java:246), io.resourcepool.ssdp.client.impl.SsdpClientImpl.sendDiscoveryRequest(SsdpClientImpl.java:171), io.resourcepool.ssdp.client.impl.SsdpClientImpl.access$000(SsdpClientImpl.java:33), io.resourcepool.ssdp.client.impl.SsdpClientImpl$2.run(SsdpClientImpl.java:108), java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:462), java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.runAndReset(FutureTask.java:307), java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.run(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:302), java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1167), java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:641), java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:920)
Any suggestion about it? How to deal with it?
I searched a lot on internet. They said me about reinstall the app.
But I can't tell to user like that, they just give 1 star and leaving..
I want know the root cause, anybody can help me? I really appreciate that!
Thanks
Update: re-install doesn't solve this problem. Now my phone can't scan anything.
Hi guys,
I'm facing exactly the same problem. It's weird that it happens on some devices only.
On my Samsung with Android 11, ssdp scan works totally fine. Same with pre Android 10 devices.
But with my Pixel 3 on Android 12, I get a similar stacktrace as chubecode did.
Some of our customers complained that they could not scan with devices since Android 10.
I already set
android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config"
in the Manifest and allowed cleartext connections in network_security_config.xml
But it is still failing...

@jeremiabitterfeld I found problem
You can take a look into sendOnAllInterfaces method.
with a for loop , when one of all item throw exception it will kill the loop and ignore another item.
Just add try/catch for each item it will be fine.
@chubecode Thanx a lot for that hint! It helped me a lot.
For Android 11 and above, it seems that the SDK is a little bit more restrictive concerning network use.
It seems that a MulticastSocket is only allowed to use a NetworkInterface that supports multicast communication.
In my case, I had two NetworkInterface instances active on my device and both were in the viableInterfaces list. But only one (the wlan*) supports multicast, the other one failed when sending the request (as mentioned in your post).
My solution was to add three lines of code to the io.resourcepool.ssdp.client.util.Utils class, that guarantee that only NetworkInterfaces are used where supportsMulticast() is true. Pls see the snippet below...
public static List<NetworkInterface> getMulticastInterfaces() throws SocketException {
List<NetworkInterface> viableInterfaces = new ArrayList<NetworkInterface>();
Enumeration e = NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
NetworkInterface n = (NetworkInterface) e.nextElement();
if( !n.supportsMulticast() ) { // added due to Android security requirements
continue;
} // end of fix
Enumeration ee = n.getInetAddresses();
while (ee.hasMoreElements()) {
InetAddress i = (InetAddress) ee.nextElement();
if (i.isSiteLocalAddress() && !i.isAnyLocalAddress() && !i.isLinkLocalAddress()
&& !i.isLoopbackAddress() && !i.isMulticastAddress()) {
viableInterfaces.add(NetworkInterface.getByName(n.getName()));
}
}
}
Next week I'll do some intense testing with multiple devices and I hope the fix will be verified then.
Maybe someone could add this to the repo, so that we can continue using this awesome library even on latest Android devices.
Nice solution! I hope it works too. My user complaint a lot about it.
Hi everyone, thanks for jumping on this.
I will explore after Christmas and release a fix hopefully Sunday.
Thanks @jeremiabitterfeld, just implemented your code and 2.4.5 will ship with that and a couple other fixes.
Let me know if everything works as expected.
Thanx @loicortola for the really fast delivery! So I can make our customers happy again :-)
Happy new year to all of you!
and thanx again for that great lib!
Yay! Happy new year!!
