Thor's VPS thread

How do you guys go about debugging wget if it retries and time outs the whole time.

-d

did not reveal much other than it's timing out.

( I tried a bunch of url's so it's not that. )

Okey.

I have a file on github.

I want to put the contents of that file on my VPS, (it's a bash script I have for nginx)

However when I do this:

Code: 
sudo wget -O newfilename https://raw.githubusercontent.com/<username>/<repo>/<branch>/some_directory/file.sh

I keep getting connection timeout.

However the url work in the browser.

I thought maybe wget is outdated

So I did wget --version

and saw I am on version 1.7

so I decided hey, perhaps I should update to 1.8.

However same issue:

It will keep connection eventually times out and then try 1, 2 ,3 till I control C to stop

Wow, this thread should be renamed "Thor's Brain in Realtime" :D

Or "Thor's free support / training" thread. Threads like these are the reason why forums are abandoned eventually.

Don't talk k@k. Starting threads and asking questions and getting them answered makes it easier for the next person with the same or similar problem. And, free training is great. The world is better for it.

Correct, the community has contributed to the thread.
 
I am now convinced this is a host issue.

I rebuild the VPS selected Ubuntu 14.04 as the OS logged in as root

First thing I did is:

Code: 
 apt-get update

Stuck on connecting to archive.ubuntu.com

I even did:
Code: 
 sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf

and then

Code: 
apt-get update
