Why can't Gradle download a dependency?

Question

Java

I started taking a course from mail.ru but got stuck

I tried to go to the site - it redirects to https://repo.jfrog.org/ but I can only get there through a proxy - it does not let me directly. What to do next?

Answer 1

In general, one of the addresses is blocked by the RKN. But there is another address - to make it work, you need to register
52.7.23.178 repo.jfrog.org in the hosts
address sometimes changes

Answer 2

Ask your ISP why you can't get to jfrog.org. Or use a VPN.
