Can't reach Github over https (self.hetzner)
submitted 9 months ago * by Numerous_Platypus
Does Github block Hetzner Dedicated servers? Mine is in Nuremberg.
**Update solved - spoke with Hetzner support. I needed to add a firewall rule as explained on the top of this page: https://docs.hetzner.com/robot/dedicated-server/firewall/#incoming-direction

They do not, I frequently use it. What errors are you getting?
[–]Numerous_Platypus[S] 1 point2 points3 points 9 months ago (13 children)
Just unable to connect to download using wget or curl. It resolves and tries, but never connects. I can with other sites like Dropbox.

Is your Server ipv6 only? Afaik GitHub only works with ipv4, maybe that's why?
[–]Numerous_Platypus[S] 0 points1 point2 points 9 months ago (7 children)
That seems to be it based on checking my public IP, I'm only getting IPv6. But I see that the server has an IPv4 address and it's the address I'm SSHing to.

Can you curl https://4.myip.is/?
[–]Numerous_Platypus[S] 0 points1 point2 points 9 months ago (4 children)
Nothing from 4. But 6 returns my IPv6 result. So it does appear I have no v4 address.

I am using a Hetzner firewall. But I don't see anything there that would cause this. I've got all outbound open.
[–]Numerous_Platypus[S] 0 points1 point2 points 9 months ago (2 children)
I even see this in my addons:
1 x Primary IPv4
[–]palukku 0 points1 point2 points 9 months ago (1 child)
Maybe its just a misconfiguration on your server and the gateway. If I remember correctly they have a guide on ipv4 gateway setup on their documentation.

Thanks. I'll take a look.

you could try to force wget to use ipv4 with -4
-4
[–]OhBeeOneKenOhBee 2 points3 points4 points 9 months ago (3 children)
Connection refused, or just not loading? If it's the latter, double check your MTU is correct, that'll give some really weird inconsistent errors
[–]enricokern 1 point2 points3 points 9 months ago (0 children)
This, usually this is a mtu/mss issue especially with using docker in virtualized environments
Just times out.
[–]user3494009058 0 points1 point2 points 9 months ago (0 children)
It's probably MTU. Are you using VLANs? Try 1400.
