Update failed: Download failed. cURL error 28: Resolving timed out after 10000 milliseconds
when trying to update Hovercraft theme
I tried to update several times and always getting this error on the page
@OP this is almost always a temporary issue with your web host or other internet hiccups, you can keep trying or come back later and try again
function __extend_http_request_timeout( $timeout ) {
return 60; // seconds
}
add_filter( 'http_request_timeout', '__extend_http_request_timeout' );
I haven’t tried this, but an interesting hack from:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/curl-error-28-connection-timeout-after-10000-ms/
add to your theme functions.php
and reload the page, and try again?
Most of the “update” type of problems in WP are just temporary.
Try again after 20 minutes, or 1 hour.
lol you are right, I wanted 1 hour and then suddenly it worked fine……
