Diversion Error when block list updates

Halfi

Occasional Visitor
Osid list stop working, I'm get this error:
Zrzut ekranu 2025-11-20 141126.jpg

Any sugestion how to fix that?
 
Perhaps that URL was temporarily unavailable? It's working at the moment for me so maybe just try again.
 
Thx for reply.
The URL has been fine all along. I have been getting this error for a couple of days now. Also I was trying to changing it to https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2 and still same error.

small list doesn't work too.

Strange. I don't use Diversion so don't know what it does behind the scenes (hopefully a Diversion user will chime in) but I'm guessing it's using wget or curl.

If you SSH into the router and run this command do you get any errors?

Code:
wget "https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2" > /dev/null
 
in both i get
Connection timed out.
Connecting to big.oisd.nl failed: Cannot assign requested address.

It runs:
Code:
/usr/sbin/curl -s --insecure --location --connect-timeout 10 --retry 3 --head -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0" https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2 | head -n 1 | grep "HTTP/1.[01] [23].."
to validate the list url.

I use the same OISD list without problems. Ran an update just now to confirm.
@Halfi are you using skynet? Which blacklist? Whereabouts are you (country is fine)?
 
in both i get
Connection timed out.
Connecting to big.oisd.nl failed: Cannot assign requested address.
Have you made any changes to your router recently, particularly with regard to DNS? Are you using the Skynet addon script?
 
i got RT-BE92U with 3006.102.5 and only installed Diversion 5.4.6. Dont have installed skynet.

I change my custom list to default LARGE and i get this error:
https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2 appears not to be a valid compatible file format, skipping update of Large blocking list failed completely, using previous blocking file.

I can access to site and this file from my browser without any problem.

As a workaround for now, try setting the Diversion blocklist with this custom url:
Code:

Thank You, its working now.

So the problem its osid or division?

Is this still true? Is there any vpn on the device where the browser is?
I've seen DNS servers also fail to adequately resolve the IP address of big.oisd.nl before. If I am able to resolve the IP, I usually also try to ping the IP once. I also test using different DNS services to see if they produce a different IP because sometimes the address changes before the cache of the server has had time to catch up. But last time I had this issue, I waited 24 hours like @dave14305 , and the maintainer of the oisd list recommended. Then I was finally able to resolve the list again.
 
Just today, the osid.nl website displayed a message that my IP address was blocked due to incorrect ad blocker configuration.

I unblocked my address, added https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2 to the custom list in Diverion, and now everything is working.

Thank you all for your help.

I wonder what they consider incorrect configuration. The frequency, list format or what else?
Did they specify this?
 
Nothing specific, only IP address was blocked due to incorrect ad blocker configuration.
And sugestion to use specific format list for Adblocker. in my case https://big.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2

Funny thing is my list was working good from 2 months when i got new router. And this problem appeared a couple of days ago.
