Unable to verify server certificate
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2008 13:40:21 -0400
Hi Team,
I need to connect to a secure website which is https based. I have to
validate the certificate of the site before connecting.
I trying opening the site, exporting the certificate from IE to .cer
format and then use openssl to convert it to .pem as CURL supports only
..pem format only.
I my script when I try to connect and mention --cacert/ --capath option
to my certificate in .pem format it fails.
Here are the logs for the same. Let me know if I am doing any thing
wrong.
CApath: none
* SSLv2, Client hello (1):
} [data not shown]
* SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server hello (2):
{ [data not shown]
* SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11):
{ [data not shown]
* SSLv3, TLS alert, Server hello (2):
} [data not shown]
* SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details:
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate
verify faile
d
* Closing connection #0
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK.
Details:
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). The default
bundle is named curl-ca-bundle.crt; you can specify an alternate file
using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
the -k (or --insecure) option.
Thanks and Regards,
