Libra validator connection fails

Question

I've been trying to follow the tutorial at https://developers.libra.org/docs/my-first-transaction

But I get the error

Not able to connect to validator at ac.testnet.libra.org:80, error RpcFailure(RpcStatus { status: Unavailable, details: Some("Trying to connect an http1.x server") })

when running ./scripts/cli/start_cli_testnet.sh

Has anyone else gotten this issue? I'm not sure why it wouldn't be available.

Answer 1

This seems to be fixed on the new master branch of the github repo. If you're running into this problem, you can just git pull and it should be fixed.

Answer 2

After pull "Use git checkout testnet" will fix

Answer 3

I had the same error as I was on a wifi that I think was blocking the rpc call. I no longer have the error.
