Get Virtualizor

Template Download Issue

Domain Resolution

Verify that the server can resolve the virtualizor.com domain:

ping virtualizor.com

If the domain does not resolve, add Google's DNS server:

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" >> /etc/resolv.conf

After updating the DNS configuration, try downloading the template again.

Root (/) Storage Full

If the root (/) filesystem does not have sufficient free space, the template download may fail.

Check the available disk space:

df -Th /var/virtualizor

Example:
Filesystem     Type  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3      ext4  144G  136G  742M 100% /

When this occurs, the task log may show the following error:
You do not have enough disk space to download the OS template


For KVM, OS templates and ISO files are downloaded to the following locations by default:
OS Templates : /var/virtualizor/kvm/
ISO Files    : /var/virtualizor/iso/

Free up space on the root (/) filesystem and then retry the template download.

Slow Template Download Speed

Template download speed may vary depending on the network connectivity between your server and the selected mirror.

Virtualizor automatically checks the available mirrors and updates the mirror order based on latency when the cron runs.

Available mirrors range from s0.softaculous.com to s8.softaculous.com.

If you want to use a specific mirror, you can update the mirror settings in  /usr/local/virtualizor/universal.php

Example:

$globals['mirrors_by_speed'] = '["https:\/\/s8.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s1.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s6.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor",
"https:\/\/s3.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s4.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s2.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor",
"https:\/\/s7.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s5.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor","https:\/\/s0.softaculous.com\/a\/virtualizor"]';

You can check the latency to a mirror using:

mtr s8.softaculous.com

Place the mirror with the lowest latency at the beginning of the list to prioritize downloads from that location and improve template download performance.
