Root Cause

Network latency or packet loss causes the connection to the Go module proxy to time out.

generic

中文

网络延迟或丢包导致与 Go 模块代理的连接超时。

Workarounds

  1. 85% success Use a different proxy or direct access with GOPROXY=direct. 
    Set 'export GOPROXY=direct' to bypass the proxy and fetch from VCS directly.
  2. 60% success Retry with increased timeout using environment variable. 
    Set 'export GOFLAGS=-timeout=120s' and retry.

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Increasing GOFLAGS with -timeout flag. 80% fail

    Go's timeout flags affect build steps, not HTTP connections to proxy.

  2. Using a VPN without checking proxy settings. 50% fail

    VPN may add latency; timeout may worsen.
