Downloading files in Kaggle gives - 'failed: Temporary failure in name resolution' error

Question

I try to download a script from github on Kaggle -

!rm -rf utils.py
!wget raw.githubusercontent.com/sevenfx/fastai_audio/master/notebooks/utils.py

I get this error -

Resolving raw.githubusercontent.com (raw.githubusercontent.com)... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘raw.githubusercontent.com’

Is there any settings in Kaggle that has to be done or in general whats wrong with this ?

Answer 1

That was seen before with a kaggle kernel

For anyone in the future who has the same issue in a Kaggle kernel, you need to turn on internet and gpu.

On the right side of the kernels window, there should be a settings section:

You’re gonna want GPU turned on and internet connection turned on.
