SSLError on Windows #66

I get the following error running linkchecker 9.3 GUI on Windows for a https request: Error: SSLError: hostname 'XXX.net' doesn't match 'YYY.net'. Seems like it messes up Server Name Indication.
Every browser works fine with the domain in question, as does linkchecker 9.3 CLI on Ubunutu.

This project is a friendly fork of the original LinkChecker. We haven't geared up enough to be able to produce Windows binaries yet.

Hello @straight-shoota ,
Have you tried to set the SSL verification setting at false ? Maybe it can help you.
Options --> Configuration file --> Edit, and change the line as is

# CA cert bundle to use. Set to zero to disable SSL certificate verification.
sslverify=0

Thanks @palsecam, I think I had already tried that, but it does not help anyway. The error comes not from validating the certificate but it seems that linkchecker on windows does not use Server Name Indication so the domains don't add up.

Same here:

Error: SSLError: hostname 'domain.net' doesn't match either of '*.webspaceconfig.de', 'webspaceconfig.de'

Would be nice, if this bug will be fixed.

Same for me:

Error: SSLError: hostname 'www.xxx.com' doesn't match either of '*.aruba.it', 'aruba.it'
