I am trying gRPC and I having some issues. I have build a gRPC server and a client. Did almost the same as the java example of gRPC (https://grpc.io/docs/languages/java/basics/) so nothing special. Now when I create a jar of the server it runs well but when I create a jar of my client it throws the following exception:
Exception in thread "main" io.grpc.StatusRuntimeException: UNAVAILABLE: io exception

This does not happen when I run the client in Intellij.
After searching for a while I found some posts that suggest using flag java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to force ipv4 usage but that did not work.
Some versions of protobuf & gRPC
implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-java:3.21.5'
implementation 'io.grpc:grpc-netty-shaded:1.49.0'
implementation 'io.grpc:grpc-protobuf:1.49.0'
implementation 'io.grpc:grpc-stub:1.49.0'
So to be clear, the client works when it is run in Intellij but not when build as a jar.
