Are you getting 403's when downloading? Please read here first

carly.richmond · February 3, 2025, 12:47pm

Great, thanks for confirming that! I've raised the request and will come back with a response when I've heard from the team.

carly.richmond · February 12, 2025, 2:43pm

Hi @Edgars_Lukss and @gmaOCR,

I hope you're both well. I've received word today that the ASNs for your IPs have been added to the allowlist. It can take some time to propagate but you should be able to download Elastic assets on those IPs.

Hope that helps!

Hi @jconnary,

Welcome! Thanks for sharing your details. Can you confirm which Elastic artefact you are unable to download/ command you are running that is generating the 403?

jconnary · February 25, 2025, 8:07am

Hi Carly,

Well, it's not related to a specific integration and maybe this is the wrong thread, but I came across it whilst searching for a solution. I have a new installation that I'm trying to get working. So far it seems ok, but when I go the Add Integrations page, it never fully loads. I just get the spinning icon and all of the placeholders for integrations are just grey boxes. Here is a screenshot:

Sorry if my problem is not related to this. Just let me know and I'll open my own post.

Cheers,
Jeff

carly.richmond · February 25, 2025, 8:35am

Ok @jconnary, thanks for sharing. This might not be a forbidden issue. Can you share the output of the browser DevTools console and network calls?

If the network calls are showing 403 responses it could be the IP needs to be unblocked. Otherwise it's a different issue

Let us know!

jconnary · February 25, 2025, 8:57am

Thanks for the response @carly.richmond. Do you mean 403's like this:

carly.richmond · February 25, 2025, 8:59am

Exactly @jconnary! That's what I need. I'll raise a request with the internal team with the details and revert back with an update when I can.

Just a note that it can time some time for the requests to be actioned.

Hope the helps!

jconnary · February 25, 2025, 9:13am

That's great @carly.richmond ! Thanks very much for your quick help.

Hi @Damien_Gustave,

Welcome! I assume you are trying to download an asset via wget, and potentially an older asset? Can you confirm which asset you are trying to download and if you are able to download a more recent version of an asset such as Elasticsearch 8.17?

I'm not able to access the above resource either so I want to confirm first.

Let us know!

Damien_Gustave · March 13, 2025, 8:41am

I am trying to access the debian repository of the 6.x version.

I tried with a wget directly. What interesting is that it is working directly on the machine. But I want to download the artifact from a virtual machine.

So, directly from the host machine it does work:

damien@tools-2:~/vm-setup/vagrant-base-box$ curl ipinfo.io
{
  "ip": "51.159.222.46",
  "hostname": "2687956d-2b13-465a-8afd-4b6ff2963671.fr-par-2.baremetal.scw.cloud",

But for a virtual machine it does not (obviously the ip info is the same):

One time it even breaks in the middle:

Finally, the virtual machine itself works fine since I can download everything but your artifacts.

I don't know what filter you use but it's not only the source IP.

carly.richmond · March 13, 2025, 10:25am

Thanks for confirming @Damien_Gustave. Elastic v6.x is a pretty old version that is past EOL. We would recommend using a more recent version if possible.

It's interesting that downloads work fine on the box but not the virtual machine. Does your virtual machine configuration have IPv6 enabled? If so I would recommend disabling that and trying again.

Let us know!

Damien_Gustave · March 13, 2025, 10:55am

Yes, I know this is an very old version, for now we have ne resource internally to do the switch.

I have no ipv6 on the VM, but I do on the host

VM:

The behaviour is very erratic, as, in a 30 second window, I was able to download the file once, then a 403, and right after, a success:

carly.richmond · March 13, 2025, 12:07pm

Thanks for sharing @Damien_Gustave. It looks like you've now been able to download the install from your latest message. If not, I would recommend trying to disable IPv6 on the host.

Hope that helps!

Damien_Gustave · March 13, 2025, 12:37pm

Well, that don't resolve the issue since this process run within a continuous integration system daily, we need it to work every time.

carly.richmond · March 13, 2025, 1:02pm

Makes sense @Damien_Gustave! Can you try disabling IPv6 on the host as I suggest above?

Damien_Gustave · March 13, 2025, 3:50pm

I did and it did not improve things:

sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1

After restarting the virtual box VM:
