Could not resolve mirrors.digitaloccean.com

Posted on September 11, 2014

Hi,

When I try to run apt-get update or anything else I get this error Could not resolve mirrors.digitaloccean.com.

I cannot do anything with my droplet.

Do you know what the problem might be?

I experienced the problem when I selected Ipv6 but when I created using Ipv4 , I didn’t experience it. I guess there is some problem in Ipv6 resolution

Same problem here, in Bangalore servers, tried all the answers, only thing fixed it for me was rebuilding my droplet using IP4 address. Seems the problem is with IPv6 addresses. Hope it helps…

Hi,

I have the same issue, and I will love not to rebuild my droplet
