Can't resolv hostname

[c0r3dump3d]

Hi, when I try to send a file to scan to Virustotal with the option -f I have this error:

Can't resolv hostname, check your internet conection

My internet connection it's fine and when I use the script with the option -fs, to obtain only the report, it's work fine.

Thank's

with -f works fine here, it can be related to vt api server side problems as I saw it too, the error which trigger that msg is: except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:

so it related to their side too, can you try during today and let me know if issue still persist, i will close it as in not 100% my side problem, but i need to improve error msg

[c0r3dump3d]

Ok, thank's for your fast answer, I will try during today.

[c0r3dump3d]

Sorry for the insistence but the error persists. Do you know if Virustotal has problem with the service or perhaps it is problem of my api key?

[doomedraven]

If tou can do any other request it not your side problem, probably some problems on their side, as in past we saw problem in some countries, not in all, try increase timeout in config, i dont thing it will change something but who knows

[doomedraven]

is that issue still persist for you?

[c0r3dump3d]

Hi, yes the issue persist. I have wrote to Virustotal but they have not answered me. I think it's problem of my API key ...

[c0r3dump3d]

Now Virustotal answered me and say this:

"We had some connectivity issues a few days ago. Now all is working correctly."

But it's not working ...

[doomedraven]

yes as I told we saw that in past, it also can be related to geo related load, as here it works just fine

[c0r3dump3d]

Hi, the issue it has been fixed!!

Thank you for your attention.

[doomedraven]

what it was? vt side?

[c0r3dump3d]

Yes, it was in the side of vt.

i'm happy what everything solved. if you have any suggestion/issues with my api client feel free to tellme to improve it :)
