I'm getting this error when using fastq-dump in the SRA toolkit and am not sure what it means or how to fix it...

fastq-dump.2.8.2 sys: timeout exhausted while reading file within network system module - mbedtls_ssl_read returned -76 ( NET - Reading information from the socket failed )

Did you ever get an answer to this? I am having the same problem.

Have you looked to see if there are any local firewall restrictions?

If you are looking for a specific SRA# it may be easier to get the fastq files directly from EBI-ENA. Just search with that accession.

Do yourself a favor and download files directly from the ENA, see Fast download of FASTQ files from the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA)
