DNS not working inside a Kubernetes pod (could not resolve host / nslookup: can't resolve)
Pods can’t resolve service names or external hosts — CoreDNS is down, blocked by NetworkPolicy, or the upstream resolver fails.
Failed to create pod sandbox: plugin type="calico" failed (add): ... (FailedCreatePodSandBox)
The kubelet couldn’t set up the pod’s network sandbox — almost always a CNI plugin problem or exhausted pod IPs.

TaskCanceledException: The request was canceled due to the configured HttpClient.Timeout of 100 seconds elapsing
The HTTP call took longer than HttpClient.Timeout (100 s default), so .NET cancelled it.

Nothing is listening at that host:port — the target service is down or you’re connecting to the wrong address.
ECS task stopped: CannotPullContainerError: pull image manifest has been retried ... / ref pull has been retried
The ECS task couldn’t pull its image — no network route to the registry, missing ECR permissions, or a wrong image tag.
Error response from daemon: Pool overlaps with other one on this address space
Docker tried to create a network whose subnet clashes with an existing Docker network (or a VPN/host route).
driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name
Docker’s iptables rules were wiped (firewalld/ufw reload, iptables flush) while Docker was running, so it can’t publish ports.
System.IO.IOException: Failed to bind to address http://127.0.0.1:5000: address already in use
Kestrel can’t listen because another process (often a previous run of the same app) uses the port.

The ingress controller received the request but no Ingress rule matched the host/path, so it answered with its default backend.
Service has no endpoints (no endpoints available for service / Endpoints: <none>)
The Service’s selector matches no ready pods, so traffic to it is refused or returns 503.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0
`JSON.parse()` / `response.json()` received something that isn’t JSON — very often an HTML error page.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException: Cannot deserialize value of type `java.util.ArrayList` from Object value
Jackson found JSON whose shape doesn’t match the target Java type (object vs array, string vs number, missing constructor).

The JSON contains a field your Java class doesn’t have, and Jackson is configured to fail on unknown properties.

denied: Your authorization token has expired. Reauthenticate and try again. (Amazon ECR)
Docker’s login to Amazon ECR has expired — ECR tokens last 12 hours, so pushes and pulls fail until you log in again.
docker compose: services.x Additional property y is not allowed / yaml: line N: mapping values are not allowed
The compose file is invalid YAML or uses a key Compose doesn’t recognise at that level (usually an indentation mistake).
docker-compose: command not found / 'compose' is not a docker command
Your system has only one of the two Compose flavours: the old docker-compose (v1) binary or the newer docker compose (v2) plugin.

Another process (often a second PostgreSQL install or a container) already listens on 5432.
OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use
The port your server wants to bind is already taken by another process.
SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED / unable to get local issuer certificate
The client couldn’t verify the server’s TLS certificate chain, so it refused the HTTPS connection.
fatal: unable to access 'https://…': SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
Git doesn’t trust the HTTPS server’s certificate — corporate proxy, self-hosted Git with an internal CA, or outdated CA bundle.
