Why is bundler unable to reach http://rubygems.org?

bundler, ruby, ruby-on-rails, rubygems

Solution

This is not a gem or ruby issue, this is a resolver issue, as you could tell from your `uknown host rubygems.org` response.

If your browser is resolving, try sites like:

- http://isitup.org/rubygems.org

- http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/rubygems.org

to validate that your problem is localized.

Problem

Bundle install was working perfectly yesterday but now it's returning this output in the CL: ``` ~/dev/rails/sample_app$ bundle install Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/. Error Bundler::HTTPError during request to dependency API Fetching full source index from https://rubygems.org/ Could not reach https://rubygems.org/ ``` the only change I made to the gem file was to add the gem for factory girl (1.4.0) in the test group. I'm not working behind any proxies and I'm fully connected to the internet as well. Can't seem to find anything like this on google either. Any help would be much appreciated!
