CentOS remote_file timeout - Postgresql

Hi all,

Trying to deploy the postgresql cookbook on a local virtual machine through virtual box, running CentOS with bridged network adapter.

It tries to download the file 'https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-PGDG', however it get's a timeout. From the VM I'm able to resolve the DNS name and ping download.postgresql.org.

Any ideas what may cause this? I'm not sure if this is because of some VM-networking misconfig, or if it is related to Chef.

Thanks!

It could be your network. Have you tried the default NAT setup? What does your kitchen.yml look like?
