nslookup dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org nslookup: can't resolve '(null)': Name does not resolve

This means DNS resolution is not working. Your network setup is broken somehow.

dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org works, but has problems actually downloading anything.

I use dl-4.alpinelinux.org as a mirror, but it's not the best solution for us.

https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/ seems offline, too

UPDATE: download working now.


_I was_ I'm still having issues downloading from dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org. Docker was hanging at the initial alpine fetch (fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz), but then I restarted my docker machine, and now the download errors actually show:

Of course, visiting these URLs via browser download them without an issue.

Same issue
I'm sitting behind a proxy, and have added proxy exports in /etc/default/dock
now stuck at
fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.3/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz

I have same problem:

ERROR: http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.5/community: temporary error (try again later)

And:

nslookup dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org
nslookup: can't resolve '(null)': Name does not resolve

Same problem since two days ago.

Using the dl-4 mirror results in the same problem

@gittycat can you nslookup dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org?

@ncopa

/ #  nslookup dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org
nslookup: can't resolve '(null)': Name does not resolve

nslookup dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org nslookup: can't resolve '(null)': Name does not resolve

This means DNS resolution is not working. Your network setup is broken somehow.

@ncopa It is indeed the problem. The container didn't have an internet facing network interface. Thanks a lot for your help.

I fixed it in my docker container using --network=host

This issue is occurring for me as well. It appears intermittent. I sometimes get a 503 when running a wget on http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz or http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz sometimes I can pull the file down on my local. This is failing in a jenkins job for a docker setup. Getting fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz WARNING: Ignoring http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz: temporary error (try again later) fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz WARNING: Ignoring http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz: temporary error (try again later) and then if I wait a few minutes it might work. I also went to http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine and then when I open version# into a new tab, sometimes the link opens and other times 503 timeout errors.

I'm getting this too:

Just a repo glitch?

Hitting it manually with browser gives:

Error 503 first byte timeout

first byte timeout
