# Aider chat conversation:
USER: ../relp_handler.go:71:18: r.connectToRELPServer undefined (type *RELPHandler has no field or method connectToRELPServer)
ASSISTANT: It seems like the `connectToRELPServer` method is missing in the `RELPHandler` struct. Let's add this method.
Here is the *SEARCH/REPLACE* block:
relp_handler.go
```go
<<<<<<< SEARCH
func (r *RELPHandler) Startup() error {
var err error
r.conn, err = r.connectToRELPServer()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("Failed to establish TCP connection: %v", err)
}
go r.receiveEventsFromChannel()
go r.processFailedEvents()
go r.watchDirectoryForFailedEventFiles()
return nil
}
=======
func (r *RELPHandler) connectToRELPServer() (net.Conn, error) {
conn, err := net.Dial("tcp", r.relpServerURL)
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
return conn, nil
}
func (r *RELPHandler) Startup() error {
var err error
r.conn, err = r.connectToRELPServer()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("Failed to establish TCP connection: %v", err)
}
go r.receiveEventsFromChannel()
go r.processFailedEvents()
go r.watchDirectoryForFailedEventFiles()
return nil
}
>>>>>>> REPLACE
```
This block adds the `connectToRELPServer` method which establishes a TCP connection to the RELP server and returns the connection.
