i think it will problem of internet connectivity even wget unable to resolve any hostname..
Able to traceroute google.com ?
@boltersdriveer
nothing happen...
it says unable to resolve hostname...
What's in your /etc/resolv.conf file? Try adding 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to it if there's nothing inside.
check in your /etc/resolv.conf maybe?
edit: nevermind, Boltersdriveer beat me. :P
If you can access the Control Panel (Solus VM) and you don't have any important data on the VPS, just re-image (reinstall) the VPS,
Also,
resolves perfectly well, so I don't think it's an issue with LXLabs.
Also, IOError = I/O Error ? Not too sure on this one though, If it's an I/O Error, there's nothing you can do.
At the end you got the cheapest stuff.
Well, 2 things
As monster says, is your DNS most likely.
Also, Centos SUCKS n_n. And some of their templates are screwed. Btw, I am waiting since months and MONTHS to get Debian 6 and just they don't do anything...
Yomero, just get Debian 5, update the sources.list and do a dist-upgrade, that's how i got Debian 6 on 123systems
thank u all
they resolved my problem through
support Tickets
problem is at their end..
When I did it it got broken n_n
Several times
Worked for me
Just use Linode's docs:
http://library.linode.com/troubleshooting/upgrade-to-debian-6-squeeze
I know how to do it, I just remember getting errors about insserv and another stuff. Let's say, init.d corrupt or something.
