packagecontrol.io DNS issue #1602

Closed subject721 closed 2 years ago

subject721 commented 2 years ago

When trying to access https://packagecontrol.io I ran into occasional timeouts. After some digging around (pun intended) I noticed that e.g. the google DNS (8.8.8.8) returns two different IPv4 addresses for packagecontrol.io. One points to the website I'm expecting the other one results in timeouts on port 443 and a HTTP "forbidden" on port 80.

I noticed that after restarting our primary DNS server and flushing its caches.

If that is a regional thing: I was doing the DNS queries from Germany

The working DNS entry:

; <<>> DiG 9.16.21 <<>> @8.8.8.8 packagecontrol.io
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

The DNS entry that leads to some (probably unintended server):

; <<>> DiG 9.16.21 <<>> @8.8.8.8 packagecontrol.io

Oh I just noticed that this is probably the wrong repository. Sorry for that.
