MSP-EXP432E401Y: HTTP/HTTPS Get Examples with Static IP Fails to Connect

This is with pthread priority 10 as well as Ti rtos task priority 10

I'm more interested in using Ti-rtos thread type rather than pthread. I thought the implementations should be interchangeable. Why is that not the case?

I call this function before creation of httpTask or httpThread below. I made a slight modification to answer in the linked post by passing the Config handle and setting it as a hook in .sysconfig

void setDNS(void* hCfg){

    uint32_t dns;

    // Manually add the DNS server
    dns = inet_addr("192.168.86.1");

    CfgAddEntry(hCfg, CFGTAG_SYSINFO, CFGITEM_DHCP_DOMAINNAMESERVER,
                    0, sizeof(dns), (unsigned char *)&dns, 0);
}

// Task Initialisation
Error_Block eb;
Error_init(&eb);
Task_Params params;
Task_Handle httpTaskHandle;

Task_Params_init(&params);
params.instance->name = "httpTask";
params.priority = 1;
params.arg0 = 0;
params.stackSize = HTTPTASKSTACKSIZE;

httpTaskHandle = Task_create((Task_FuncPtr)httpTask, &params, &eb);

if (httpTaskHandle == NULL) {
    /* Error: could not create NDK stack thread */
    Display_printf(display, 0, 0,
                    "netIPAddrHook: Task_create() failed\n");
    while(1);
}

createTask = false;

// HTTP Task Thread Implementation

ret = HTTPClient_setHeader(httpClientHandle,
HTTPClient_HFIELD_REQ_USER_AGENT, USER_AGENT,
strlen(USER_AGENT) + 1, HTTPClient_HFIELD_PERSISTENT);

if (ret < 0) {
    printError("httpTask: setting request header failed", ret);
}

for(int index = 0; index < 2; ++index){

    Task_sleep(3000);

    ret = HTTPClient_connect(httpClientHandle, HOSTNAME, 0, 0);

    if(ret >= 0) break;
}

if (ret < 0) {
    printError("httpTask: connect failed", ret);
}

PThread :

 /* Set priority and stack size attributes */
pthread_attr_init(&attrs);
priParam.sched_priority = 1;

detachState = PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED;
retc = pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&attrs, detachState);
