cdn.redhat.com SSL certificate invalid??

Latest response

I'm trying to do some updates via yum.  The updates were failing so I tried a yum search and got the following error:

 

https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/workstation/6/6Workstation/i386/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 77 - "Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)"
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rhel-6-workstation-rpms. Please verify its path and try again
 

I tried to follow the link in Firefox and also received a warning that the certificate for cdn.redhat.com was invalid because it wasn't issued by a trusted authority.  What's the resolution on this?

I've been digging into intermittent problems on cdn.redhat.com the last day or so.  Is this reproducible for you?

 

As to your Firefox error, the CA that signs certificates for cdn.redhat.com does not ship with web browsers.  That's why Firefox thinks it's untrusted.  The subscription-manager tools ship with the trusted CA.  This is unrelated to the "Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)" error.

Could you please provide a temporary fix at least?

Christian,

If you received this message within the past week, it was likely a temporary issue with the Red Hat CDN. If this error is still occurring for you, please contact Red Hat Support.
