Google Cloud Installation: Hostname unresolved - google-cloud-sdk

Okay, feel really dumb as I can't even install Google Cloud SDK. Started using command line and then moved to the installer. I got a "Download Failed:Resolving Hostname" Error. There seems to be nothing in the guides and any youtube videos say it installs easily - just keep clicking next?!?
Why am I being asked to set up a network proxy?
I'm using VPN? Could that be the issue?
Thanks in advance

It was the VPN. Annoying. Whilst posting this it occurred to me so I tried with the VPN disconnected and yipdy do dar, it worked.

npmjs.com is showing cloudflare error 1034, and npm CLI is showing E403

I know this is a kinda weird question, but I couldn't find any relevant info about this issue elsewhere so I took the easier way and wrote here.
My problem seems to be related only to my PC, that I cant access npmjs.com, I have no clue why. When I try accessing the npmjs.com website it tells me that Cloudflare errored with error 1034 ( Edge IP Restricted )

This does not happen when accessing docs.npmjs.com, that works just fine. The other part of the problem is that not even npm CLI is working, when I try to npx or install something it errors with E403 - Forbidden.

As I said previously this only happens on my PC, elsewhere on my network this does not happen.
I have a desktop PC connected with a cable to my router, but when I check with my work laptop on wifi, everything is working as it should be.
I tried connecting it straight to the modem, but that does the same so I isolated it to be an issue on my PC only.
This issue has been happening since yesterday when I found out after coming back to node.js after some time.
Just in case it could be related, I'm using a pi-hole with OpenDNS settings ( Had an unused raspberry pi, so I followed tutorial on youtube on how to get it working ).
To this day I haven't had a single problem with it, I've been using it for over a year now.
Thank you for reading and potentially answering my question.

Google Colab running any cell received javascript related errors

Received a browser white popup saying when executing any cells:
Error
Could not load the JavaScript files needed to display output.
This is probably because your Google account login access has expired or because third-party cookies are not allowed by your browser.
Please reload this page.
DETAILS
I have tried re-login and restarted runtime, and no help. Strange is another notebook is fine.
OK
Update: Just restarting browser and relaunched everything seemed to "fix" this.
For those like me who tried all the given solutions but with no use ,the magic thing that worked for me in the end was to open colab using a vpn!
Restart browser. If someone find a better way, please post.
I got this error on chrome. Every colab notebook I opened had this issue even if it wasn't connected to a runtime.
Restarting the browser didn't help.
Clearing cookies of last 24hours (and restarting my system to be sure!) fixed the issue.
This may be because access to your Google account has expired or because your browser does not allow third-party cookies.
Check your task manager on your laptop and see how full the disk is.
Mine was 100% so I searched “disk cleanup” on my Windows computer And got rid of temporary files and files downloaded from internet, etc. also clear cache and cookies on whatever browser you’re doing. And if you have synced your google chrome and Microsoft edge specifications as the same(cookies, extensions, etc) then get rid of both cache and other stuff on them as well. Also check 3rd party cookies
Using vpn solved this problem for me
The library I'm using by default prints a large amount of info, which caused this problem for me. Restart the browser only works if it doesn't print that much again. Disabling the verbose info printing solved the problem for me.
I found when the notebook is heavy it is throwing up this error. For example there were so many plots in my notebook, that slowed it down and caused this problem. Also make sure you don't have multiple notebooks opened.
Try Cleaning your trash/recycle-bin & temp files.
That worked out for me.
Disabling some AdBlock extensions works for me.

Cannot restart Google Cloud VM

I ended my trial period with google cloud, and I have upgraded my account, still my virtual machine is stopped and I get this following error, which I couldn't manage to solve.
Starting VM instance "hasoffer-api" failed. Error: The default network interface [nic0] is frozen.
Can anyone give me a tip to solve this issue?
Many thanks in advance
Most of the times, that error is due to a deletion process of the project or a recently change in your billing account, what it seems to be your problem.
In this case, it is neccesary to file a case to Google Support.

Google drive and one drive sign in gives internet connection errors

I have downloaded google drive and after its installation when google drive icon pops out for sign in, it gives me internet connection error. however my internet connection is working fine. i have tried it multiple times but failed. Same was the case with one drive sign in. Is there any problem with my connection settings? help me please
This is because your system uses PROXY to connect to the internet.
Try to change the proxy settings.
I would suggest trying to completely quit out of Google Drive and restarting the application. If that doesn't work, then reinstall Google Drive.

Heroku error when attempting to deploy app from dropbox

I am trying to deploy a node app on heroku via the web GUI for dropbox, and I get the error:
Item could not be modified:
"Content-Type" request header must be set to "application/json".
Any clues as to what that might mean?
Disclaimer: I was not the one who wrote the app, just made two mods for heroku.
In case you haven't found an answer... I have the same problem.
You probably need to update your runtime stack.
Here's Heroku's message on their website:
"The legacy Cedar-10 stack has been deprecated and reached its end-of-life on November 4, 2015. Applications may continue running, however you will not be able to push to your application without upgrading to Cedar-14 first."
How to update informations are available here:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/cedar-14-migration#upgrading-the-production-app-to-cedar-14
I have the same problem. I raised a ticket at Heroku. They replied,
"Are you using Firefox? We seen this recently with Firefox and we are currently working on a fix. In the meantime, you can use another browser like Google Chrome for deploying your app."
And using Google Chrome fixes the problem.
