![]() TLS certificate verification failed for : self signed certificate in certificate chain TLS certificate verification failed for .: certificate hostname mismatch (*.) When certificate verification is enabled an invalid server certificate produces an error message in NZBGet such as: Download that file onto your machine running NZBGet and set the option, for example:ĭealing with certificate verification failures Luckily curl project has a convertor and offers already prepared files in suitable format, which can be download from (click on “cacert.pem” link). Mozilla maintains an up-to-date list of root certificates but in their own format not suitable for direct use with OpenSSL or GnuTLS libraries (which NZBGet relies on). Many Linux distributions have certificate store in file “/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt”. When compiling NZBGet from sources you need to set option CertStore appropriately. Official NZBGet installation packages include the certificate store file and do not require additional configuration. In NZBGet it’s location is set via option CertStore. In order to perform certificate verification the program needs access to the certificates of trusted authorities - CA root certificate store. There is a global list of trusted authorities. ![]() CA root certificate storeĮach certificate is digitally signed by a certificate authority. If you update from older NZBGet version the verification will be automatically activated after you go to settings page and save settings (the new option CertCheck will be written into your config file). Official NZBGet installation packages offered on NZBGet download page (for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and FreeBSD) all have certificate verification enabled by default. Starting from v19 NZBGet checks server certificates when option CertCheck is activated. Older versions of NZBGet did not check server certificates and security was reduced. If the check fails that means the connection cannot be trusted and must be closed with an error message explaining the security issue. When connecting to news servers (for downloading) or web servers (for fetching of rss feeds and nzb-files) the authenticity of servers must be validated using server security certificates.
