x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

[gallart]

I got this error when running your script from Debian 7 :

go run hipchat.go 
2015/10/22 09:22:41 Expected no error, but got "x509: certificate signed by unknown authority"

Script :

package main

import (
    "github.com/andybons/hipchat"
    "log"
)

func main() {
    c := hipchat.NewClient("xxxx")
    req := hipchat.MessageRequest{
        RoomId:        "xxxx",
        From:          "GoLang",
        Message:       "Bad news: Combustible lemons failed.",
        Color:         hipchat.ColorPurple,
        MessageFormat: hipchat.FormatText,
        Notify:        true,
    }

    if err := c.PostMessage(req); err != nil {
        log.Printf("Expected no error, but got %q", err)
    }
}

Are you specifying a custom HipChat endpoint to connect to?

This would occur if the endpoint you attempted to connect to has an invalid cert.
