  • 1.  DNF install failing

    Posted Mon November 13, 2023 05:54 AM

    Good morning,

    My DNF install has suddenly started failing with a certificat eerror:

     #  https://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/ez   <
    lwp-download: 500 Can't connect to public.dhe.ibm.com:443 (SSL connect attempt failed because of handshake problems)

    same for wget on the same link:

    # install/ppc/dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar                            <
    --2023-11-13 10:37:51--  https://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/ezinstall/ppc/dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar
    Resolving public.dhe.ibm.com... 129.35.224.112
    Connecting to public.dhe.ibm.com|129.35.224.112|:443... connected.
    Unable to establish SSL connection.

    Has something happened or am I doing something wrong? This used to work. I tried running the cert update script /ansiblemnt/AIX/cert_update.sh, which runs silently but doesn't fix the problem.

    Regards,

    Henrik Morsing

    Hello @Henrik Morsing!

    Here I´m getting this message and it works, maybe the HSTS part is the problem?

    Hi Stephan,

    Oddly, it worked from our other DC and it turned out the name resolved to different IP addresses. One is clearly broken, so I updated the DNF install script too fix it.

    Regards,
