I've see something like this happening randomly in Firefox: occasionally, loading a page fails and works on a retry. Could be a Firefox specific issue though as I've not seen it anywhere else. On 4/16/21 10:49 AM, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz wrote:
Hello!
Does anyone else have issues with the reliability of DNS lookups on Tumbleweed?
I'm regularly running into the issue that DNS lookups fail on the first attempt while they succeed on the second or third attempt. Multiple Debian machines on the same network don't have any DNS problems and lookups always succeed on the first attempt.
I vaguely remember that there was a discussion regarding a long-standing DNS issue on openSUSE but I cannot find this thread anymore. Does anyone happen to remember the discussion?
I considering to switch my machine to a different DNS resolver if the issue persists because it makes working with OBS very annoying as I'm often seeing this message when working on mass package updates:
Failed to reach a server: [Errno -2] Name or service not known
Any suggestion for a quick fix or workaround would be appreciated.
Thanks, Adrian
