Curl error 60, SSL certificate issue: self signed certificate in certificate chain
This error message appears when curl is unable to verify the SSL/TLS certificate presented by the server. This can happen for several reasons, including the use of a self-signed certificate or a certificate that was signed by an untrusted authority.
Here are a few steps you can take to resolve this error:
- Use the
--insecure
option to bypass the certificate check:
curl --insecure https://example.com
Install the missing CA certificate on the system running curl. This will allow curl to verify the server's certificate chain.
If the certificate is self-signed or signed by an untrusted authority, you can add the certificate to a file and use the
--cacert
option to tell curl to use the certificate as a trusted CA:
curl --cacert /path/to/ca.pem https://example.com
- If you have access to the server, you can try generating a new SSL/TLS certificate that is signed by a trusted CA. This will eliminate the need to bypass the certificate check or add the certificate as a trusted CA.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
