Format of hosts file about quic-tracker HOT 4 CLOSED

I should indeed document the hosts file format. It's a tab-separated value file with the following columns:

• The host and port used for hq tests (i.e. tests that don't use HTTP/3 but rely on the HTTP interop protocol)
• The path to request when a test needs to retrieve some data
• The port to use for HTTP3 tests
• "h3" or "hq", depending on whether the implements hq amongst others or only implements HTTP/3

So in your case, assuming you would like to only run tests against Google's IETF QUIC test endpoint it should look like:

quic.rocks:4433 /index.html 4433 h3

I should probably change that format to something more friendly. I don't even recall why I chose TSV in the first place.
You also seem to have a docker issue. I guess this solution is handy: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60315076.

hosts.txt
I just ran your command line with the hosts file above and it worked. I believe it is still a tab issue in the file.

@mpiraux You are correct, I double checked yesterday and was certain it was, but diffing the files proves otherwise. I agree something other than tabs as a delimiter would be helpful :) thank you!

Thanks @mpiraux - I've updated the file based on your example, making sure tab character is the delimiter, I also checked out that stack overflow page and it does seem to resolve the no such file issue, however I'm now getting a runtime error with go index out of range.

$ cat hosts.txt
quic.rocks:4443 /index.html 4443  h3
$ docker run -v "$PWD:$PWD" -w "$PWD" --network="host" quictracker/quictracker /test_suite -hosts ./hosts.txt
panic: runtime error: index out of range

goroutine 1 [running]:
main.main()
	/go/src/github.com/QUIC-Tracker/quic-tracker/bin/test_suite/test_suite.go:102 +0x13d7

I believe this is a go issue but not sure what the problem is, I'm afraid I have no experience with go. Does it give you any clues?
