geofield + addressfield not working [#2850826]

greetings

i am unable to retrieve geo coordinates from addressfield. i have tried on three separate drupal installations so i assume it is a configuration issue. can somebody help me troubleshoot this? here are my particulars ...

geocode 7.x-1.3
geofiled 7.x-2.3
addressfiled 7.x-1.2

settings ... geofield field, geocode from another field (field_address my post address field), google geocoder with default settings, and my display i have tried every option in content type display and in a views debug display.

does anybody have any ideas what else i can try? thanks.

drupalstrap created an issue. See original summary.

just an update ... i tried on a fresh installation of drupal and still not working. i tried with location field and still not working. so i tried on simplytest.me and it works just fine. so the issue must be related to my server configuration and geoPHP communication. is there some special apache mods or php7 extensions i should check that are installed? i was not able to find any info at geoPHP website regarding server configuration. thanks for any tips

so i ended up doing some configuration on remote server and then importing that database to local and now it appears to be working locally. i have no idea what the issue is/was. marking this as closed.

well, i was mistaken. i thought it was working locally because the coordinates were saved in the db i imported from remote server where it does work. still not working locally. i enabled debug and found this in log, so at least something to indicate what the problem is ..

Exception: HTTP request to google API failed.\nCode: 0\nError: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Temporary failure in name resolution in geocoder_google() (line 113 of /var/www/html/mysite/sites/all/modules/contrib/geocoder/plugins/geocoder_handler/google.inc).

how can i solve this? thanks
