Error in Julia v1.11 when updating Registry or packages

[nandoconde]

Problem

I installed Julia with juliaup in Windows, and I am currently on v1.11 beta. When I try to run ] update the following appears:

(@v1.11) pkg> update
┌ Warning: could not download https://pkg.julialang.org/registries
│   exception = RequestError: Failure when receiving data from the peer while requesting https://pkg.julialang.org/registries
└ @ Pkg.Registry C:\Users\fcpv\.julia\juliaup\julia-1.11.0-beta1+0.x64.w64.mingw32\share\julia\stdlib\v1.11\Pkg\src\Registry\Registry.jl:75

  No Changes to `C:\Users\fcpv\.julia\environments\v1.11\Project.toml`
  No Changes to `C:\Users\fcpv\.julia\environments\v1.11\Manifest.toml`

Plus, it takes a bit longer than my v1.10 instance (maybe 1 second or so) in launching and also in entering Pkg REPL mode.

The first issue could be a temporary network issue or perhaps your firewall is blocking something.

This is somewhat expected.

Details here:

Should we distribute multiple official system images for Julia 1.11?

In Julia 1.11, REPL.jl and Pkg.jl are now independent packages and not standard in the system image. This will help slim down the system image and make Julia’s packaging more modular. REPL.jl and Pkg.jl will be able to updated independently of a Julia release. I’m also currently investigating how to decouple the two packages by making the Pkg REPL mode a package extension. However, having Pkg.jl and REPL.jl as independent packages will make startup of the interactive Julia experience slower tha…

I am using my home’s WiFi, but this is happening in a corporate laptop. Any way to check this?

[nandoconde]

Sorry to ping again, it is really making it difficult for me to work in my corporate laptop. Pinging Stefan because I think he did some rework facing v1.11 regarding Pkg server infrastructure.

Seems likely that your company laptop is setup to use some kind of firewall that’s blocking access to pkg.julialang.org and/or storage.julialang.net. That wouldn’t have changed in 1.11, however. I would talk to your sysadmins and get them to help you.

Is there any way to check at which point is the process failing? That might help them debug it.

Thanks for the help!

Usually a good starting point is to try

curl -L https://pkg.julialang.org/registries

@GunnarFarneback

curl -L https://pkg.julialang.org/registries

This happens:

Have you contacted your corporate IT regarding accessing pkg.julialang.org, particularly storage.julialang.net?
