Hi,

since 20210924-070000 there seems to be a problem with your servers certificate.

curl https://status.ocr.space
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
More details here: https:// curl.haxx.se/ docs/ sslcerts.html
curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.

wget some_address_as_above

Unable to locally verify the issuer’s authority.

It seems CURL is having problems connecting to Let’sEncrypt, our certificate issuer.

The certificate itself looks good and is valid:

but it’s not only CURL. Same happens for WGET…

and happens on different (LINUX) operating systems.

It’s strange but wget and curl work on a Windows 10 box…
no problems at all :frowning:
