Can not open almost of websites

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

I have the computer which install Linux for learning. But I can't open many of websites, such us webboard, Blog, Twitter, softpdia, and other. When I direct connect to some url to install some packages of software from terminal but it's no use. Both condition have the same error messeges that tell "Can't find server". I use fedora 18 but I have uninstalled it and change to PCLinuxOS and then Mandriva, but have the same problem.

On the oher hand, All of Linux OS I said above, They are installed in VMware in the other computer, but have no that problem.

Could anyone of you know how to solve it.

Usually, that means that you're not connected to the Internet. Try installing your wifi card driver. When you're using them in VM, it's just using the host's connection so that's why it works.

Sounds like you need to install the networking drivers.

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

My browser, I use both Firefox and Konqueror. But it's same.

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

No, I connect to internet and i can open some websites.

but, I can't install any driver. all of driver I attemp to install is show error or fail.

Can you open any sites at all?

ksham · May 3, 2013

KarnRedsunComrade :

Use an Ethernet cable. Then download your wifi drivers.

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

stillblue :

Yes, I can.

such as google facebook wikipedia and this web and other (most of it is the websites from Thailand but not webboard or blog). Some web I can open but most of website I can't.

ksham :

I always use Ethernet. I never use WiFi.

Or should me install LAN driver (I have attemped to install but it was failed).

ksham · May 3, 2013

No; nevermind. Forget everything I said earlier.

Are webboard and blog the only sites that you cannot access? Or are there more?

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

ksham :

more than that.

Many of Websites have a files download stores, I couldn't access too. That's why it's a big problem, because I couldn't access any files from those web. And couldn't access them from terminal too.

Can you ping them via terminal? Do it on your computer and the one in VMWare. Screenshots?

KarnRedsunComrade · May 3, 2013

wait for tomorrow. I will post screenshot.

in terminal i do it for install rpmfusion for fedora but now I use mandriva on my computer. it's not important anymore (I think it's installed with linux)

KarnRedsunComrade · May 4, 2013

Here Are the screenshot of this problem

1. Can not open the web. All browser show like this.

2. But when use "Google Translate" or "Google's cache", They could be opened.

3. Some websites can be opened, but it's not complete, like this.

4. This is Google Chrome installation. It's couldn't be install on double-click and click "Install". It's shown like this.

5. Then I get it on terminal, but it can't install too.

What is your suggestion.

Failed dependencies usually mean:
1. you don't have the library package (make sure it's -dev version)
2. you have the library package, but not the correct version

Can you run a ping on webboard or blog from both your computer and the vm? Just want to check DNS is fine.

KarnRedsunComrade · May 4, 2013

ksham :

The google chrome installation error is the same in VMware and my computer. but in VMware have no problem about websites opening like in my computer.

Yes, I can ping on websites I can't open.

I can ping any website on my computer, although browser can not access. and on VMware too

ksham · May 4, 2013

Doesn't matter. If you don't have the necessary dependencies, you'll need to install it.

Are the IPs for the websites the same on both ping requests? But you said that you can open the website on your vm but not on your desktop?

KarnRedsunComrade · May 4, 2013

ksham :

Yes, it is. It's the same IP

How to install those dependencies?

ksham · May 4, 2013

How do you normally install packages? Use the package manager. Go one by one and see if you have it installed. I can't really read the first one. The second one is libcurl. Do you have that installed?

It's important to learn how your package manager works. I personally don't use Red Hat so I am not familiar with its rpm.

And did you say that you can access the webboard and blog in your vm web browser, but not in your desktop's web browser?

KarnRedsunComrade · May 4, 2013

ksham :

yes, i said that.

Try changing your DNS resolver to Google's DNS records.

stillblue · May 4, 2013

ksham :

First you might want to check if your Ethernet is configured with Automatic DHCP and not Automatic DHCP address only under IPv4 and IPv6.

Just in case Google's DNS are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4, put into your Ethernet configuration as additional DNSs.

stillblue :

I do like that. (Following Picture)

But nothings happen.

KarnRedsunComrade · May 4, 2013

What do I do then. It's the same as before.

sam_p_lay · May 4, 2013

I was gonna suggest OpenDNS (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) - is Google DNS the same kind of thing? If so, does either have an advantage?
