Failed to connect to github.com port 443: Connection timed out


I have a project on a raspberry pi and am maintaining using github. All has been working fine until today when I got the message:

Failed to connect to github.com port 443: Connection timed out

Tried switching off and on again and several other troubleshooting, no problems with internet connections. Searching online comes up with people using proxies or firewalls which I am not using or at least they haven't made an effect until now.

Does anyone have any suggestions?


Solution

  • Check first if the issue persists: there is an incident on GitHub side which just got resolved.

    "Incident on 2020-05-19 14:04 UTC"

    investigating reports of service interruptions impacting GitHub.com services

    If it was working before and you did not change anything, it could resume working again.
