Connection error on Jahia Store

Question

When accessing the Module menu, the following error occurs:

2016-08-18 15:38:25,436: ERROR [HttpClientService] - Unable to get the content of the URL: http://store.jahia.com/en/sites/private-app-store/contents/modules-repository.moduleList.json. Cause: store.jahia.com

Cause

Access to internet via the HTTP port 80 or the HTTPS port 443 was forbidden.

Solution

If it is intentional to forbid the access to the Internet, a simple solution is to remove the URL allowing the access to the store.jahia.com in the "Private App Stores" menu.

After removing this URL, the error is no longer thrown.
