Apt update failed

Hello,

I'm trying to install neo4j on my server (debian jessie), but I got a "connection refused" from the neo4j repository...

Here the apt update:

apt update
Err:1 https://debian.neo4j.org/repo stable/ InRelease
  Failed to connect to debian.neo4j.org port 443: Connection refused
[...]

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Here the netcat command:

nc debian.neo4j.org 443
debian-neo4j-org-1292656467.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com [3.225.5.190] 443 (https) : Connection refused

It works on my computer (debian jessie too)...
My server is hosted by ovh.com, is that possible neo4j repository doesn't accept connections from this company?

Thanks

Hi @surfooo I checked our server and we aren't blocking any specific IPs. If our repository works from other computers, that usually means that the problem is client-side.

It seems like it's probably a firewall issue or a proxy on your server?
The fact that another package failed to update would suggest so too:

Failed to fetch https://deb.nodesource.com/node_12.x/dists/stretch/InRelease Failed to connect to deb.nodesource.com port 443: Connection refused

Could you check with your server host provider maybe?

Hello @jenny.owen,

Thanks for your answer, it works now! Probably an issue from my provider, sorry..

No problem! I'm glad it's working now.
