Hello everybody,

We have an urgent problem with a SecOps Forwarder instance from one of our customers.
The error message looks as follows:

Does anyone know what might be causing this issue?
Could it be a missing connection to storage.googleapis.com over TCP/443?

I appreciate any responses.

Many Thanks

It looks like it's reporting network transport errors. Ensure the following:


1) Forwarder host has Internet access or allowed access via firewall to these hostnames: https://cloud.google.com/chronicle/docs/install/forwarder-linux#google_ip_address_ranges


2) If there is a proxy, attempt to bypass it for troubleshooting. 


3) Some Linux distros have built-in firewall. Ensure one of those is not filtering the traffic. 


4) Ensure the Forwarder host has functioning DNS resolution. You can just try pinging one of the hostnames above to ensure it resolves.

Just adding on here. 


Ping your gateway 


ping 8.8.8.8


ping malachiteingestion-pa.googleapis.com


if all that works test firewall rules by: 
curl -k malachiteingestion-pa.googleapis.com


Thank you, everyone!

We've successfully managed to bypass the proxy server, and we're currently able to receive events. However, we're still looking for a solution that enables using a proxy server.

Is there a way to set this up in combination with Docker Compose? Has anyone had success with Docker Compose for this setup? Most of the solutions I’ve found online haven't worked as expected. 😂

Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
