Kickass Torrent Indexer not working

I’m having issues using Kickass as an Indexer. It was working before when I originally set up Sonarr, but all of a sudden it is not loading anymore. I tried deleting and re-adding but it doesn’t connect. It says to check the logs and this is what it says:

System.Net.WebException: The request timed out
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse (IAsyncResult asyncResult) [0x00065] in /private/tmp/source-mono-mac-4.2.0-branch/bockbuild-mono-4.2.0-branch/profiles/mono-mac-xamarin/build-root/mono-4.2.1/mcs/class/System/System.Net/HttpWebRequest.cs:946

Not really sure what’s going on!?! Any help would be appreciated.

It is down for me as well. I think it is issues with KAT servers right now with DDoS attack. Hope they can get it fixed soon!

Since a couple of days kat isn’t working as a indexer anymore…
The indexer test fails with the following error code:

Message
Unable to connect to indexer: The request timed out

Exception
System.Net.WebException: The request timed out

I can reach de website normally from any browsers. How can I fix it?

I’ve been experiencing the same thing. In my logs:

KickassTorrents server is currently unavailable. https://kat.cr/tv/1/?rss=1&field=time_add&sorder=desc The request timed out

followed by multiple:

FetchAndParseRssService No available indexers. check your configuration.

are you in ubuntu with mono ? in order to release the correct DNS you need to restart sonarr
I tried the link you provided and it opens. Can you try to open it from your OS

I noticed this issue started with the newest mono update I did on my qnap device. I rolled back to the 3.10 on my NAS and all worked fine. just something for everyone to check. I want to upgrade the mono again but will wait for a but to see if any better conclusions/fixes can be made

I know some of the words you said… Haha what is the fix in not computer science terms?
