Posted on December 22, 2019

Hi, I recently followed this guide (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-automatically-manage-dns-records-from-digitalocean-kubernetes-using-externaldns) , however no matter what I do (Generated a new token, did helm repo update) and reinstalled external-dns still I am getting error in the logs as per below: time=“2019-12-22T15:42:34Z” level=error msg=“Get https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/domains: dial tcp: i/o timeout” Has anyone seen this issue before?

Hi @brancojunio,

I followed the tutorial and it was managed to configure everything properly. However while I was performing it, I got an idea which you could’ve easily missed. Did you install/follow all the Prerequisites guides?

In order for the article you mentioned to work, you’ll need to install everything needed for it.
