Hello,

When having issues with FortiGuard communication the below debug might help: 

dia de app update -1
dia de en
exe update-now

-leave it to run for a couple of mins

dia de disable

Also you can try and perform a change in the Fortiguard settings and see if the change resolves it. You can test by changing the update server from EU->US or vice-versa or disable/enable anycast. This will trigger a new connection to Fortiguard servers and might resolve your issue. 

 

Hope it helps!

Hello Vacunar_System,

 

When Fortiguard servers are unreachable, there are a few ways to workaround the issue:
1) Disable FortiGuard Anycast: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-FortiGuard-is-not-reachable-via-Anycast-default/ta-p/190041,
2) Temporarily use different DNS servers,
3) Or enable the setting, "Allow Websites When a Rating Error Occurs": https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Web-Page-Blocked-An-error-occurred-while-trying-to/ta-p/191998

Please let us know if the issue still persists.

Hi, I disagree with that. I changed the DNS, and it doesn't work, and a message appears saying that all servers are out of service. Additionally, I noticed that the DNS servers are not responding. Please I would like a step-by-step guide on what to do in these cases because the other instructions seemed confusing. ThanlsCaptura 2.JPGCaptura.JPG

Hi Vacunar_System,

 

Could you try disabling TLS (TCP/853) and instead enable DNS (UDP/53)?

Try accessing the web page in a private window/incognito mode to get rid of any browsers cache.

Hello,

Is there any official information regarding the failure?

Nobody talks about it, it seems like they don't want to admit that something happened.

Hi @Vacunar_System ,

 

I guess that you have now resolved the issue.
If that should reoccur, it might be worth saving the two links below in your browser, it might become handy:
