@ALQuant

Sorry about the issue that you are facing.

I checked this error (EAI_AGAIN) and found that it could relate to the DNS server, as shown here.

EAI_AGAIN is a DNS lookup timed out error, means it is a network connectivity error or proxy related error. 

You may need to contact your IT support team to verify if the DNS server works properly.

I hope that this information is of help
