Fixing network issues in your DevOps setup can be tricky, but here is what I have found online in order to possible solve them effectively:

 

1. Ensure that your proxy settings are correctly configured in Azure DevOps. Go to Project Settings -> Agent Pools -> Select your agent pool -> Agents -> Your agent -> Capabilities. Check if the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY variables are set correctly.

 

2. Identify the ports and URLs that need to be accessible through your company's firewall for Azure DevOps. Usually, Azure DevOps uses HTTPS (port 443) for communication. Make sure that traffic to Azure DevOps services is allowed.

 

3.  Check the logs and error messages. Common default locations include (directory of the self-hosted agent):

  • Windows: C:\agent
  • Linux: /home/{user}/agent 
  • Common log files might include agent.log, diag.log, or logs specific to the job/run ID where the artifact download failed.

Please share the logs, so that we can investigate the issue further.

I may need to check the port and the URLs.
The server capabilities seems correct.
dev.azure.com and the port 443 should work right?

Here's an example of the log
