Cannot clone linux-toradex.git?

I am trying to bitbake simple core-image-minimal, while bitbaking it gets stuck at :

Initialising tasks: 100% |##########################################################################################################| Time: 0:00:04
NOTE: Executing SetScene Tasks
NOTE: Executing RunQueue Tasks
Currently  1 running tasks (716 of 2038)  35% |##################################                                                                 |
0: linux-toradex-4.1-2.0.x-2.7.5 do_fetch (pid 2686)  26% |###################

This happens on 2 different systems running Ubuntu 14.04

I also tried to download this file separately into the downloads/git2 folder like this:

git clone git://git.toradex.com/linux-toradex.git git.toradex.com.linux-toradex.git 

this gets stuck too at:

Cloning into 'git.toradex.com.linux-toradex.git'...
remote: Counting objects: 5962644

I cant seem to figure out how to download this, other repos are downloading just fine. Its not an internet or space problem I have 150 GB of space!

Anyway I can clone this repo? I created the environment using this:

mkdir oe-core
cd oe-core
repo init -u http://git.toradex.com/toradex-bsp-platform.git -b LinuxImageV2.7
repo sync

Thanks!

Works fine for me:

[user@host ~]$  git clone git://git.toradex.com/linux-toradex.git git.toradex.com.linux-toradex.git

I wonder whether you are behind some kind of firewall plus depending on your global location you may get a different server assigned via global DNS:

What does git.toradex.com resolve to for you?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, I am located in Germany. What do you mean by what does it resolve to?

Thanks,

Thanks for your reply,

You are very welcome.

I am located in Germany.

Ok, then I would expect you to clone from the same European server located in France as we do from Switzerland.

What do you mean by what does it resolve to?

I meant the IP address e.g. as my dig output above showed.
