urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] error

[Former user]

adding the feed in the RSS Feeds tab worked in Abonnements tab clicking Add Subscription button and choosing the feed in the drop down menu causes this error: urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] not sure if this is related to issue #22

I ran into this issue. Actually considering going to a different version of ubuntu so I can use this plugin again. I wish I could understand how to fix it myself.

[Bendik]

I'd rather avoid having to chase around to figure out how to reproduce the issue so to fix this I need more information like:

• python version
• OS and version
• Ideally the failing URLs to test

[Blueberry Muffin]

Sorry I posted all that on deluge forum before it crashed back in november. Wasn't thinking. Hopefully he can give you a URL to test.

Python version is 2.7.10 OS is Ubuntu 15.10

I'm also encountering this issue.

Python 2.7.10
Mac 10.11.3
Deluge 1.3.12
Failing URL: https://eztv.ag/ezrss.xml

I'm also encountering this issue...

Python 2.7.6 Ubuntu 14.04 Deluge 1.3.12

I'm able to to download torrents manually from the https tracker but I get this error when yarss tries to read their https RSS feed

[Michael Stephenson]

Same here. Same spec as Joshua above.

Hey guys, this is a really strange issue. As I wrote: Python 2.7.6 Ubuntu 14.04 Deluge 1.3.12 = error BUT I have tested another setup yesterday: Python 2.7.9 Debian 8.3 Deluge 1.3.11 = No error! In both cases I used the thin client on my Mac... Is it a Python version issue? Or a Python-Deluge-version issue?

EDIT: I've noticed that it only works with "real"/trusted certificates. Another feed with a self-signed one brings the error back...

[Jan De Bleser]

Yes, this is a python issue. We had a similar issue with openport. We fixed it by switching to requests, instead of urllib.

Same problem here:

Ubuntu 15.10 Deluge: 1.3.12 Python: 2.7.10

[M K]

Same problem here:

Client: 1.3.12 OSX 10.11.4 Python 2.7.11

Server: 1.3.10 Raspbian 8 (jessie) kernel 4.4.8-v7+ Python 2.7.9 libtorrent: 0.16.18.0

[M K]

it seems to be problem on OSX side because on Windows it works well

[Joshua Staggs]

same problem: Python 2.7.9 client: 1.3.13 OSX 10.11.5 server: 1.3.13

I can confirm that same settings work on windows but not on OS X

[darkskull90]

Same Problem:

Client: Mac OSX 10.11.6, Python 2.7.12, Deluge thin client 1.3.13

Server: Debian 8, Python 2.7.9, Deluged 1.3.10

Did anyone has find a solution?

[darkskull90]

After much reading online, I am pretty sure now that the issue is due to openssl on mac. I am currently mitigating this issue using deluge thin client on a linux virtual machine. I have to boot up the VM every time I have to work with my rss feeds, until a solution is there.

[Christian Widlund]

still same error on mac

[M K]

i would like to notice that this issue has highest vote count ever (in this repo) ^_^

[Augustinas]

Since Python 2.7.9 SSL verification is enabled by default. Ether fix your OpenSSL Root CA list or just disable SSL checking. One way to do it is to set environmental variable PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0. Like: export PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0

[Christian Widlund]

How do you fix your OpenSSL Root CA for python on osx?

[Matthew]

Does anyone have a workaround for this issue on macOS?

[Csaba Faragó]

In debian stretch I've installed ca-certificates package, after restart deluge server it fixed for me.

apt install ca-certificates

[M K]

on OSX + RPi it don't work

apt install ca-certificates

cert problem is on OSX side i use VM with ubuntu if i need to change something
