I am using focal Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS (hosted virtual machine)


Occasionally after a reboot DNS resolution fails (e.g. ping google.com > Resource temporarily unavailable)


To 'fix' this I reboot the machine.


What is the proper fix and why is this occurring sporadically ?


The contents of resolv.conf indicates the file is being managed by systemd-resolved


# This file is managed by man:systemd-resolved(8). Do not edit.
#
# This is a dynamic resolv.conf file for connecting local clients directly to
# all known uplink DNS servers. This file lists all configured search domains.
#
# Third party programs must not access this file directly, but only through the
# symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage man:resolv.conf(5) in a different way,
# replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.
#
# See man:systemd-resolved.service(8) for details about the supported modes of
# operation for /etc/resolv.conf.
# No DNS Servers known

example error:


wal@www:~$ ping google.com
ping: google.com: Resource temporarily unavailable

If /etc/netplan is empty then netplan does not configure your network.


Your network is probably configured in old ifup/ifdown style.
That means you find the network configuration in /etc/network/interfaces.


In addition there is systemd-resolve with its DNS configuration file /etc/systemd/resolved.conf where you can put your DNS configuration in.


[Resolve]
DNS=8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8 2001:4860:4860::8844 2001:4860:4860::8888
#FallbackDNS=
Domains=example.com
#LLMNR=no
#MulticastDNS=no
#DNSSEC=no
#Cache=yes
#DNSStubListener=yes

You can check your DNS settings with


systemd-resolve --status

You can restart systemd-resolve with


systemctl restart systemd-resolved

Alternatively you can put your settings in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail which will be added to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf during boot.
