| Description |
This article describes how to troubleshoot the 'Threat feed update failed' error when the feed list is configured. |
| Scope | FortiGate v7.2.0 and later, v7.4.0 and later. |
| Solution |
After the 'Threat feed' is configured according to the link:
If the connection to the URL fails, then the error is shown on the GUI
To validate the connection by CLI it is necessary to run the debug:
diagnose debug application forticron -1 diagnose debug console timestamp enable diagnose debug enable
Next, a threat-feed refresh is needed. It could be accomplished by one of the following commands:
diagnose test application forticron 8 <----- Reload external resource. execute update-external-resource <threat-feed name> <----- Only the requested threat-feed will be updated.
After executing one of the above commands, forticron debug will show the following messages:

After the TCP (three-way handshake) is completed to the web server 192.168.13.21, the FortiGate (HTTP client) sends the 'HTTP GET' to obtain the threat feed information for the URL. The web server responds with the HTTP error code 404 which means that the server could not find the client-requested webpage/URL.
When the connection is successful, after the HTTP GET request, the server will respond with the HTTP 200 OK:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2024 19:53:46 GMT Server: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips Last-Modified: Thu, 25 Jul 2024 19:51:48 GMT ETag: "8c-61e17b9b2678e" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 140 Connection: close Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
And FortiGate will updatethe threat feed list:
