/etc/resolv.conf getting reset to "# Generated by resolvconf

[bharadwajtk]

Hi,
I am connected to my Pi (having static IP ) through my Laptop running win7 and has enabled internet connection sharing (ICS) to provide internet to Pi. While "ping 8.8.8.8." is working on my Pi, I am unable to ping google.com or ping -c3 google.com. I checked the /etc/resolv.conf file but it has this entry "# Generated by resolvconf".

Then I added nameserver 8.8.8.8 to the resolv.conf file and after that ping google.com started working. But, when I reboot my system it's back to the same state. What to do?

Also, after reading few articles on internet I just removed resolvconf and surprisingly the issue got fixed? This issue I am facing with Raspberry Pi 2 and latest Raspbian OS. Previously it has all worked well this way

Is your static IP defined in /etc/network/interfaces?

If so, just add the line "dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8" to the interface definition, restart, and that entry should be added to the autogenerated file.
