 * Hi I am freelance web designer. I am new to wordpress and was trying out with
   a website [http://www.ecps.in](http://www.ecps.in). After a few days it shows
   the following error when I try to add a new plugin.
 * An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this
   server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support
   forums
 * I read other threads which suggested to editing config.php and changing url etc..
   None of it seemed to work. Can someone pls help me?

 * talk to your web host, this error often occurs when the host has blacklisted 
   the wordpress.org servers.

 * Thank you.
 * It might have been the problem with the web host. After a day it was rectified
   automatically.
    Now it is working fine
