SSLError "bad handshake: Error([('SSL routines', 'tls_process_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')],) with self signed certificate #4381
Comments
BTW, this is Ubuntu 16.04 |
This error is almost certainly because the certificate itself is invalid in some way. Can you provide the PEM-encoded certificate itself, please? |
Hi. Thanks for the quick answer. This is the certificate: |
Any updates on this? I am also facing issue with self sign certified sites in python request library. Getting below error.
If i keep verify False it works but i want it with verify=True |
I didn't see this before so I opened a new issue, sorry about that. But I'm facing same issue. For me 'request' fails even with verify=False. $ python
My local certificate info is,

Please do not hijack this issue. In general you should be using Stack Overflow to ask these questions: if you overload the issue with requests you just make me inclined to close it. @sg77 Your certificate is marked I recommend minting a new certificate with @ashwini-kaklij I have no idea why your verification is failing, because I can't see the certificate. Please do not post it here: direct your question to StackOverflow instead. @uttampawar Your error is caused by the server not liking our TLS handshake for some reason. In the absence of more details I cannot determine why. Please, again, take your question to Stack Overflow. |
@Lukasa I didn't mean to hijack the issue just elevate. May be this is a wrong place. I added my comments and observation since I saw it's of similar nature. I appreciate your feedback. I'll ask on stackoverflow. Thanks. |
Hi Lukasa - Just seen your reply. You have replied to @sg77 saying "Your certificate is marked How do you tell this is false and where/how can I set this back to TRUE? Thanks. |
posting the certificate key online is like posting your password |
Umm, no. Posting the certificate's private key is equivalent to your password. Every CA in business has their certificate in every mainstream OS and browser. Are they giving their password away to everyone? |
how can i access to this certificate ? |
If you are beginner to python But this is very bad practice and have been discouraged over a lots of SO posts, but still beginners misuse this because the error is so sucky to fix. Tldr;
Also, if you are on linux, you can export custom cacert into system-wide or user profile ( |
Just in case it helps someone, I was getting the same error and was able to fix it by sending BOTH the verify parameter set to the path of the cert.pem AND the cert parameter set to a tuple of both the cert.pem and key.pem paths.:
If I only sent the verify parameter or only the cert parameter or verify=True and the cert parameter I would get the error. The above method was the only one that worked. |
Hello. I'm trying to connect to a server with https. I have the certificate which is a self signed certificate which is being included in the verify parameter but the result is an error 'certificate verify failed' error. I was suspecting it had to do with the certificate being self signed (by Microsoft IIS) but with curl this works.
Thanks in advance!
This is the openssl output:
Expected Result
I'm expecting, since the certificate is in the verify parameter, that the connection won't fail. If I try the same with curl outside python it works:
(It fails but not because of certificate issues)
