Asked by 838983bf51bf468cada90e7f8c631a

DigitalOcean Spaces domain (*.digitaloceanspaces.com and *.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com) has been blocked by the Indonesian government due to internet regulations.

As a result, I am unable to access my files and services hosted on DigitalOcean Spaces from Indonesia. This issue is significantly affecting my business operations and website functionality.

What should I do to fix this problem ?

Hi there,

Probably best to reach out to the DigitalOcean support team for furhter investigation:

This is likely due to government regulations in Indonesia. In the meantime, you can work around this by:

Using a custom domain with DigitalOcean Spaces and setting up a CNAME to avoid the blocked *.digitaloceanspaces.com domain. Guide here: 👉 Customize CDN Endpoint
Using a VPN to access your files if needed: https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/vpn-server
