[SOLVED] Update

What's going on? Since yesterday I get errors (Temporary failure resolving deb.devuan.org) and the sources are ignored. I probably just have to wait, right?
Here is my sources.list:

Re: [SOLVED] Update

I got the same thing yesterday (Thursday). Just tried it again now (Fri early morning) and it updated. So yeah, sometimes this happens and you have to wait a couple of hours.

Re: [SOLVED] Update

Just done an apt update for Daedalus. Worked ok. Try again.

If it fails again check if your DNS is working alright.

Re: [SOLVED] Update

My transmission has also become slow. Maybe that's a problem with us. I mean here in Germany in Weil der Stadt.

Hi rolfie, how can i check if my DNS is working alright? Just a keyword, I can then continue searching myself.

Addendum: I get to devuan.org excellently and the answer is fast. But the subdomain deb.devuan.org refuses to work for me.

ping: http://deb.devuan.org: The name or the service is not known
ping: https://deb.devuan.org: The name or the service is not known

Re: [SOLVED] Update

The first thing to try when an update fails is host deb.devuan.org
Then ping deb.devuan.org to see if you get a response.
Then try going to http://deb.devuan.org in a browser, to see if http connctions to it work.

You may find you can only connect to some of the round robin addresses. If so temporarily putting one of the ones that works into your sources.list should get you going (preferably one that's near to you).

Re: [SOLVED] Update

Check your /etc/resolv.conf to see what nameserver(s) you are using. You could change which you use if that's the problem.

Also try host -v deb.devuan.org to get some more info.
And host deb.rr.devuan.org in case that works for some reason.

But it works for me so I can't debug it any further.

Re: [SOLVED] Update

I had a similar problem to yours & posted about it: Virgin Media blocking Open-Source Sites.

tl;dr: VM had buggered up their BGP routing & I could not reach, kde.org, devuan.org or dev1galaxy.org (all HETZNER-AS hosted sites). A useful site in situations like this is https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/. My problem was fixed only when VM fixed their routing after I emailed them.

PS BGP routing is used to traceroute to a site:

$ traceroute devuan.org

Re: [SOLVED] Update

I replaced deb.devuan.org in the sources.list with us.deb.devuan.org and this is the result:

apt-get update

There are no problems.

I replaced deb.devuan.org in the sources.list with de.deb.devuan.org and this is the result:

apt-get update

No problems here either.

And I can also access http://de.deb.devuan.org/ with the browser without any problems.

I had this exact same problem. I managed to fix it by going into /etc/resolv.conf and changing the nameserver from 127.0.0.1 to 8.8.8.8.

Hi em-777,

This is the Google DNS server ...

For me here:

cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by Connection Manager
nameserver ::1
nameserver 127.0.0.1

Re: [SOLVED] Update

That means you are not resolving anything - nameserver ::1, nameserver 127.0.0.1 means localhost.

That kills any DNS re. internet access.

Re: [SOLVED] Update

After attempting Daedalus install onto a USB to be run on a Raspberry Pi (4 or 400 series, aarch64) first by using yesterday's image, and then today's from the community's RPi trial ARM images, I too have been getting similar error responses to those shown above by jue-gen when trying sudo apt update:  it was not able to resolve deb.devuan.org, although displayed in this case in the default English. 

I had first run menu-config to a) enforce sudo;  b) to change hostname to localhost (from the ??default devuan);  c) to set compose key, and on earlier attempts another key as well;  d) to set locale to a certain UTF locale (prefer not to disclose);  e) to set timezone.

When trialling both images over roughly the last two days, doing $ ping deb.devuan.org repeatedly in a shell gave responses such as, "Temporary failure resolving 'deb.devuan.org'", whereas ping google.com responded ok with 0% packet loss. 

Could a significant clue be that upon attempting other cli instructions, not obviously related to networking lately (I think one was an ls instruction!) during one of those USB sessions, I have been getting the response, "Unable to resolve ... localhost.localdomain".  Is some daedalus package setting the host name wrong, such as menu-config?

As an aside (let's have a laugh!), perhaps agents (a man-in-the-middle?) may want to read diagnoses of our own systems to thwart us further during choice moments for them to intervene:  during a post-install, before a firewall is able to be downloaded?

Re: [SOLVED] Update

Hi rolfie,

you say: "That means you are not resolving anything - localhost". But why does it work with us.deb* and de.deb*?  And why do I get to other pages on the net? Aren't nameserver ::1 and nameserver 127.0.0.1 just the placeholder for the ISP's IP address assignment?

Re: [SOLVED] Update

I use ifupdown on its own.

But, yes, connman apparently includes DNS caching with built-in assumption that the network world is unchanging. Not that I know much about it; for me it turned up as a debian hack when wicd was abandoned, but there may well be more history to it than that.

The easiest and best (I say) is to just use traditional network configuration with ifupdown together with wpa_supplicant and possibly its wpagui gui tool,

EDIT: start with man interfaces

Re: [SOLVED] Update

Hi ralph.ronnquist,

I wouldn't have thought of anything like that. That solved my problem! Thank you very much.

Addendum:
I have uninstalled Connman. Because I use KDE Plasma almost exclusively, I have installed plasma-nm, which accesses the network manager. Yes, that's certainly not the purist option, but it's convenient for me and it works. However, I will actually have to deal with ifupdown, wpa_supplicant and wpagui. Yes, I'm also thinking about the man interfaces ;-)
