Hello,

I recently have an issue on AIX hosts that pycurl module failed to run and throw error pointing to certificate file.

$ python2

>>> import pycurl
>>> c = pycurl.Curl()
>>> c.setopt(c.URL, 'https://artifactory.company.com')
>>> c.setopt(c.CAINFO, '/etc/certs/cert.pem')
>>> c.perform()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
pycurl.error: (77, 'error setting certificate file: /etc/certs/cert.pem')

What could be the root cause of this error ?

How to remediate it ?   If I run curl command with --cacert argument I am able to get the html data.from the url.

Is there any issue on rpm package(s) or librari(es) caused the error ? 

Hello,

The pycurl.error:77 seems to indicates an issue with PycURL's ability to access or interpret the specified CA certificate file. Can you please check if the file exist and the permissions are correct for this ? /etc/certs/cert.pem
