    Hi,
    I am getting errors when trying to update plugins on my standalone installation of WordPress. It says:
    An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with ww.wp.xz.cn or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums.

    Similar messages appear on the Add new plugins page.

    downloads.wp.xz.cn seems to be down.
    What can I do?

    Nope, it’s not down. Where/how are you hosting? Can you ping downloads.wp.xz.cn from there?

    This is what I get trying to access it from my local computer:
    404 Not found

    My host provider (domene.no) also says the site is down, 404.
    This site also says 404: http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/downloads.wp.xz.cn.html

    That’s a false positive. There’s no “home page” for that address.

    Enter “https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/release/wordpress-4.9.6.zip” in your browser.

    What IP address do you get for downloads.wp.xz.cn? I see 198.143.164.250

    I am able to download the zip. Same IP here.
    Any suggestions?
    The site has been working fine up until recently.
    I see now that the host is using
    PHP v.5.6.35
    MySQL Version: 5.6.39
    Apache Version: Apache/2.4.33 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/5.6.35

    Could this be an issue?

    This is a DNS error on your host that they would have to resolve.
