EasyList subscription link doesn't work

Post by Mattron5000 »

Can't seem to download any lists from the site.
https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easylist.txt
https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus. ... rivacy.txt

I get the following error
Error code: ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED

Anybody else having this problem?

Mattron5000, what is your browser, OS and versions of those?

easy list subscription doesnt work at all. I have installed several linux distros recently (Ubuntu 13.10, Open Suse, Manjaro). Installed adblock plus (Firefox). No adds were blocked. I was desperate. Only later I noticed Easylist download failures.

I have encountered the same issue. Being an old follower I went to update the list immediately but none of the filters even beginned to download. Failing again and again. Since you are already aware of the malfunction I will give you the important information of system, and browser build. In the meantime I have manually added fanboys mirror links which do seem to work. Thanks :)
It's the Firefox 27.0.1 for Ubuntu canonical 1.0 In Ubuntu 13.10 64bit

I've got the same problem here, OS is newly installed Arch x86_64 and the browser is Firefox 27.0.1. Will check later what the situation is on my Windows computer when I get to it.

If you try this,

Code: Select all

wget https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easyprivacy.txt


Does the list download fine?

Sorry to jump in.

Same issues here. Iceweasel 24.4 on Debian Wheezy (Crunchbang Waldorf) freshly updated.

The wget above returns:

Code: Select all

It's been like this for a while :(

RIght, so does this resolve to any ips?

Code: Select all

host easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org
If not, try using a different dns server (such as 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4) http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_cent ... s-on-linux

Thank you!

Changing DNS details fixed it!

Sorry, but although adding Google NS's has "fixed" my Firefox, I do see it as a solution. I would like Firefox to just work. If we do not report it to Firefox bugzilla, developers will never fix it. I blame Firefox because all those addresses worked in Chromium/Chrome, so it is something browser related. This is my bugreport with all information I could think about - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=988819

Maybe you also want to complete the report, so they will see I am not the only crazy guy with this problem and fix it sooner than later. Thanks. :)
