Eric, Seems OK now. Maybe the problem has gone away ?

Hi friend, the same error persists 

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. connection to packages.lazarus-ide.org:80 timed out

Does anyone know of another repository to add it to, or where I can download it manually please?
PS: I have the error on Windows and Ubuntu.

Do you have fixed IP address? Maybe you got on some black list. Try to connect through some VPN proxy to the Internet.
Did you try to access this address (http://packages.lazarus-ide.org) in the browser?

[Ericktux]

Hi friend, the website opens normally:
http://packages.lazarus-ide.org/
but it doesn't open in OPM in Lazarus, what could it be?

If everything breaks then you can download the packages from http://packages.lazarus-ide.org/ and install them manually.

Thank you very much, my friend. I'm downloading it manually for now, but it seems strange to me. Does anyone else have this error with "online package manager"?

I had this error(Linux Mint).
But it was also the system update manager not working.
The problem was a blocking of port 80.
But it was my own fault, I used bolvan-dpi and set the wrong settings.
This behavior can also be caused by some VPNs.

PS: I have the error on Windows and Ubuntu.

Strange that you have the same error on different systems. I have only one assumption that the blocking is coming from the internet service provider. check if there is a response on port 80

>telnet package.lazarus-ide.com 80

Hi friend, I did the test with Telnet in windows.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. >telnet package.lazarus-ide.com 80

No errors appear. The prompt opens and then closes.
will it mean something?

AFAICT you are connected at that point, The prompt disappears, but the connection is alive for a moment and then closes with 400 bad request.
You can see that by typing status

Have you tried using a proxy with port > 80

He is only using telnet to check if the port is open.

"I'm trying to access OPM and keep receiving the same message. I've already checked the firewall and accessed it from another location, but I still get the same error. Could the problem be the Lazarus server?"

Can you access Lazarus packages from your web browser (http://packages.lazarus-ide.org/)?

[diogoabel]

Yes, I can access it normally, but downloading is very slow. When I access it via OPM, it always gives an error. I have already validated access via firewall and it continues the same way. Could it be on the package server? Even using another version of Lazarus, the error is the same

[Ericktux]

Friends, I have used a VPN and now it opens but a little slowly, what could it be?
