WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org
-
Hi,
I have searched the forum but I could not locate any topic that covers this recurring issue:
WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.orgI keep getting the below error repeatedly:
PHP Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/forums/">support forums</a>. (WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in F:\laragon\www\Zephyrs\wp-includes\update.php on line 577If it helps, Site Health shows the below error as well:
Communication with WordPress.org Unable to reach WordPress.org at 198.143.164.252: cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes receivedI would appreciate if anyone could guide me in fixing this.
I am not sure what additional information should I furnish to troubleshoot this.
Thanks a lot!

@KoolPal : This is not related to Laragon. However from the error message:
Unable to reach WordPress.org at 198.143.164.252I can see that, your DNS doesn't resolve wordpress.org correctly.

@leokhoa Thanks. How do I fix this? I am using laragon.
This is my local PC. How do I test & fix DNS issues?
-
@KoolPal Uninstall laragon and start over?

@patbell101 Thanks. Turned out to be some issue with Wordpress.org servers which seems resolved for now. Keeping an eye out for this to recur before I try something else.
Thanks again.
