API SSL error
pubblicato da binkatlSTAFFMOD il 19 ottobre, 2023 alle 7:19PM
Starting today, I began getting API errors when trying to use the TMDB API.
If I try a curl command to access the API using the example API command curl --request GET --url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/11?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
I get the following error:
curl: (60) SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'api.themoviedb.org'
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html
curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.
I looked at the URL in the error message, but couldn't find any clues. It seems like maybe there is something amiss with the SSL cert on the server? I know some API maintenance happened yesterday, so I wonder if this is a holdover from that. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi @binkatl, I tried that curl command and it works ok for me.
Just looking around I found this recent curl bug, if you are running that version. Otherwise I have no idea, it might be due to maintenance, I would probably try again tomorrow.

Thanks, yeah I'm using curl 7.68.0 on Ubuntu 20.04, so that's not the issue.
Also, I tried the same command from my home machine and it's working fine. But my server (located in Finland) is throwing the error. Possibly reaching a different API server? I don't know ... but yeah I'm happy to wait and see if it works tomorrow.

So here's an update... turns out it was due to Cloudflare DNS. I switched my DNS to Google DNS and now it's working. Strange!
