Could not resolve host: github.com #384

Closed g4jkz closed 2 years ago

g4jkz commented 2 years ago

New to pi-build and github platform. I have followed all instructions in the video to the point of downloading the software but every time I try, I get the response as below. I am using a Pi4 and the specified pi OS ...... any ideas would be most helpful ... convinced it's me at fault!

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ git clone https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build.git \ $HOME/pi-build && bash $HOME/pi-build/build-a-pi Cloning into '/home/pi/pi-build'... fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build.git/': Could not resolve host: github.com pi@raspberrypi:~ $

I assume your pi is connected to the internet? Run both of the lines below as one command:

git clone https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build.git \
  $HOME/pi-build && bash $HOME/pi-build/build-a-pi

Copy/paste is your friend and be sure you include the "\" at the end of the first line.

Yes copied exactly as advised but still have the same result. All linked via cable to the router and I am using the Pi directly not via SSH option - will this matter?

km4ack commented 2 years ago

Being direct on the pi is fine. Try these commands one at a time and see if it makes a difference. If the git clone command fails, don't bother with the rest.

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build.git
cd ~/pi-build
bash build-a-pi
g4jkz commented 2 years ago

No .. alas it failed as previously on the first line.

km4ack commented 2 years ago

There is either an issue with your internet connection or (less likely) and issue with your Pi OS image. I have verified that the commands work here. Are you able to open a web browser and navigate to https://github.com/km4ack ?

g4jkz commented 2 years ago

Yes internet working okay as sourced info from your Github page okay.

g4jkz commented 2 years ago

Thanks Jason ... I will look at the router rules in case anything is set to prevent running the commands.

km4ack commented 2 years ago

I am at a loss. The git clone command is simply a download method for getting the code to your Pi. If you can access the website, you should be able to download the code with the git command. When it says it is unable to resolve the host, this is typically an indication of an internet issue. Let's try tackling this a different way. In a browser on the Pi, navigate to https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build Find the green button (labeled code) near the top right of the screen. Clicking on it should open a drop down. Click on "download zip". Now close the browser and open a terminal. Run: unzip ~/Downloads/pi-build-master.zip -d ~/pi-build This should unzip the code to the ~/pi-build directory. Now run: bash ~/pi-build/build-a-pi Keep in mind that Linux is case sensitive so "D" & "d" are two totally different things.

g4jkz commented 2 years ago

Unpacked okay, thanks but now saying ... no such file or directory ...

If the previous command doesn't work, run:

cd ~/pi-build
ls

and post the results

ok. now run:

cd ~/Downloads
ls

and post the results.

sorry. i missed one step in the previous set of commands. try:

cp -r ~/pi-build/pi-build-master/* ~/pi-build/

Hi Jason, will have to return to this tomorrow as getting late now and don't want to tax you anymore tonight! .... thanks for your patience and help so-far, I will use another SD card with a fresh download and see if that resolves the github problem. If not will retrace the above steps again and report back to you. In the meantime, cheers for now .. Keith

km4ack commented 2 years ago

You certainly have some issue with the internet connection. It is not only github that the pi can't reach as indicated by this error E: Failed to fetch http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/pool/main/libo/libonig/libonig5_6.9.6-1.1_armhf.deb Temporary failure resolving 'raspbian.raspberrypi.org'

starbasessd commented 2 years ago

@km4ack may I suggest installing dnsutils (dig, nslookup) for diagnosis? nslookup is a simpler report, and shows not only the dns address of the query, but what server is being used.

sudo apt install dnsutils

For example:

nslookup google.com Server: 192.168.x.y Address: 192.168.x.y#53

Non-authoritative answer: Name: google.com Address: 142.250.81.206 Name: google.com Address: 2607:f8b0:4004:814::200e

It helps in these kinds of situations, where something is set up wrong (static IP, gateway, dns server, etc...)

starbasessd commented 2 years ago

nslookup raspbian.raspberrypi.org Server: 192.168.2.103 Address: 192.168.2.103#53

Non-authoritative answer: raspbian.raspberrypi.org canonical name = mirrordirector.raspbian.org. Name: mirrordirector.raspbian.org Address: 93.93.128.193 Name: mirrordirector.raspbian.org Address: 2a00:1098:0:80:1000:75:0:3

@starbasessd Not a bad suggestion. What is really odd is that he seems to be able to use the browser to navigate but nothing seems to work when called from the command line.

starbasessd commented 2 years ago

Which browser? On what machine? Are you assuming he's using the Pi's browser? I never do (assume, that is)...

starbasessd commented 2 years ago

Oh, and I forgot the most important thing:

REBOOT and test again....

km4ack commented 2 years ago

Yes. I assumed (I know I shouldn't) that he was using the browser on the Pi. Since this was a default install, I would guess Chromium.

g4jkz commented 2 years ago

Hi Jason, after an afternoon of searching the web and trying out solutions I finally have the process loading now using the following recommendation which I am assuming replaces the name text for github (?). I did initially try many changes on the Router config with no luck. However it's been running now for 50 mins (having setup my options) and still looking good. Thanks for all your help it's very much appreciated.

1.) Open file sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf

2.) Add the lines to the file: nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 8.8.4.4

1.) Open file sudo nano /etc/dnsmasq.conf

2.) Add the lines to the file: server=8.8.8.8 server=8.8.4.4

Cheers ... 73 ... Keith (gm4jkz)
