A Server with the Specified Hostname Could Not Be Found

A server with the specified hostname could not be found

Keep Trying!

I have had this a few times (including today), and each time, without changing anything, it has worked when I tried again.

Sometimes the 2nd time, other times 20 minutes later.

You probably already figured out a solution or a way around the problem, but since I reached the same question when having this problem I will provide my answer anyway in case anyone else finds this question.

For me the problem was that the MacOS app was not allowed to connect to the internet since it was automatically running in an app sandbox. The solution was to add "Outgoing Connections" to the app capabilities. See screenshot below.
