aws ubuntu 22.04 jammy ec2s can't apt-get update from aws archive 503s

bz flag

As per title, unable to apt-get / apt anything and index appears down for ap-southeast-2.

I have a collection of ec2s for a kubernetes lab cluster for a workshop, so I'm bringing it up and down every hour or so, no changes on my end today, I'm just verifying my set-up docs for users with fresh clusters.

This has been the situation a lot this week, and frequently today, anyone else dealing with this?

I can ping the address and IPs successfully.

the ec2 image: ImageId: ami-0e040c48614ad1327

apt update to illustrate:

This is more an AWS issue than one for Ubuntu. 503 means the server is not available or responding with gibberish. If the 503s continue for an extended period of time (an hour or more), you may want to get in touch with Amazon to see what's going on

It seems there is an outage ongoing on the APT repository. We are also experiencing issues on our side in our CI while using apt and there are other reports of such problems today (see here)

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
