Nuget package source setup

Question

I created a new solution and disabled nuget.org as my package source. I have different repositories added and all my packages are installed from there. On the build server I got an error:

Unable to load the service index for source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json. An error occurred while sending. the request. Unable to connect to the remote server. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time

It is because my company blocked Nuget, BUT I should not have any package from that repo.

Does somebody know where I can check if my package is from nuget.org (maybe I made mistake and download from the wrong source) or where to disable in solution/ NuGet that source permanently?

Nuget package source setup

Since you are disable nuget.org as package source for your solution, so you should also disable it by the disabledPackageSources on the build server:

Go to the folder on your build server C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config, add following to that file:

  <disabledPackageSources>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="true" />
  </disabledPackageSources>

Besides, if you are using TFS/VSTS to restore the nuget package, you can disable it from definition:
