Github fetch failed with error : update failed unable to access and SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL


I am not able to fetch my GitHub repository in local machine.

Following error getting:

Update failed           
unable to access 'https://github.com/codewithvikas/Exploring-Android.git/': 
LibreSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to github.com:443

Note: I have found similar question but not got any satisfactory answer.

Edit1:

It works when i restart my system and anti-virus is updated. So is it problem with my Anti-virus ?


Solution

  • It depends on your platform (OS version) and Git version.

    Make sure sure to:

    • upgrade to the latest Git 2.24
    • check in your PATH that Git installation is considered first.
    • check your proxy or that you are not using ipV6, as seen here.
