    Just posting this as it took me a little while to figure out.

    I was getting an obscure "Try again" error when making HTTP calls:

    local result,content,header = http.request(URL)
    log(result,content,header)

    result=nil
    content="Try again"
    header=nil

    As it turns out this is caused by setting a static IP on your Automation Controller but not having the DNS servers filled in correctly.

    Configurator > System > Network > Interfaces > click on "eth0"
