I setup a CRON job to update my links, but get either of the following two error messages:<\/p>\n

ERROR 1
\n<br \/>
\n<b>Warning<\/b>: fsockopen(): unable to connect to api.pingomatic.com:80 in <b>\/home\/USERNAME\/public_html\/wp-admin\/update-links.php<\/b> on line <b>26<\/b><br \/><\/code><\/p>\n

ERROR 2

\n<BODY>
\n<H1>An Error Occurred<\/H1>

Does this have something to do with the job I setup or something more to it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-255638","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-update-links-php"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/255638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/255638\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=255638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
