I run LyX 3.3.3 on the latest version of Windows 10, 64bit.



Today when I tried to preview a LyX document, I got continuous questions about allowing MikTeX to update.



If I start the MikTeX updater, I get this error message:

[cid:image001.jpg at 01D5C952.18659770]



If I click “Yes” to see details, this is what I get:

Any ideas of what is wrong?

  *   It appears that the CTAN mirror you have set up may not actually exist. I tried doing a domain lookup (nslookup) for "ftp.fernuni-hagen.de<ftp://ftp.fernuni-hagen.de>", and it failed (could not resolve the host).

Either there is a typographical error in the URL for the mirror, or it is simply wrong (and you need to replace it with a valid mirror).

“My” CTAN mirror has worked in the past. Must have gone out of “business”. I changed to another CTAN mirror in the MikTeX update app, and now MikTeX is being updated.
Thanks for suggestion!
