Hi ?

I'm trying to install DA on an Oracle Cloud always free Ubuntu slice to see how it will run and the installation script is getting stuck on the LAN/NAT section trying to pull the installation files from Update.DirectAdmin.com:

Code:
--2021-01-26 21:16:25--  (try: 5)  https://update.directadmin.com/cgi-bin/daupdate?uid=#####&lid=######&redirect=ok
Resolving update.directadmin.com (update.directadmin.com)... 167.172.23.237, 66.51.122.131
Connecting to update.directadmin.com (update.directadmin.com)|167.172.23.237|:443... failed: Cannot assign requested address.
Connecting to update.directadmin.com (update.directadmin.com)|66.51.122.131|:443... failed: Cannot assign requested address.
Giving up.

I have followed the troubleshooting steps on this page and WGET works with both http and http. When I look at the IP address information attached to my network adapter ens3 I see an internal IP but not the external one. During installation I tell it no, the internal IP is not the correct IP address to use and I feed it the correct license file IP per Oracle Cloud's compute instance control panel.

Any thoughts on how I can get it to work?

Many thanks!

Never mind I figured it out. I had to add a private subnet to my existing Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) in the Oracle Cloud dashboard. For anyone reading this with the same problem I stumbled on the solution when I created a new Virtual Cloud Network using the Start VCN Wizard.
