Are you in China perhaps? There were posts here before where the Chinese firewall blocked access to the pkgregistry. You’ll have to use a proxy or VPN I think.
Maybe have look here for more info: [Why is it so hard to install packages in julia from China? - #11 by ToucheSir](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/why-is-it-so-hard-to-install-packages-in-julia-from-china/87566/11)

I do have used a proxy and link to [https://pkg.julialang.org/](https://pkg.julialang.org/) sucess:

How did you install Julia? If you used your distros package manager then uninstall and reinstall via [juliaup](https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup) (should also be mentioned on top of [Download Julia](https://julialang.org/downloads/))

Still unsolved, only the first time installing `juliaup` and julia works. Same error throws when I tried update today

Hi, use the mirror sites of julia registry may help.
Try
```bash
export JULIAUP_SERVER=https://mirror.nju.edu.cn/julia-releases/ # Linux & macOS
export JULIA_PKG_SERVER=https://mirrors.nju.edu.cn/julia
```
Write them into your `.zshrc` if you want it be set everytime you login.
Also, if you are using a WSL, then the proxy may fail due to internet connection settings for WSL. I’m non-expert in this question, but if you really ran into one, I can provide some hacky solution…

I’m using Manjaro, actually, I should specify the mirror site in julia extension setting (I’m using vscode) :
Thanks anyway!
