Description Chris Ricker 2003-04-03 15:42:22 UTC
When I run up2date, I get

[cricker@winsucks cricker]$ sudo up2date --nox -u

There was an SSL error: (104, 'Connection reset by peer')
A common cause of this error is the system time being incorrect. Verify that the
time on this system is correct.


This system is using NTP to keep the timestamps synchronized, so that doesn't
make much sense....

Comment 1 Chris Ricker 2003-04-03 15:43:24 UTC
BTW, this machine was a fresh everything install of RHL 9, plus the proposed
glibc errata (glibc-2.3.2-22.9)

Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2003-04-09 20:28:45 UTC
Same error, different system. This time the system was a RHL 9 with all errata
as of 20030408 (ie, kernel-smp-2.4.20-9, but not the glibc errata released 20030409)

[kaboom@verdande kaboom]$ sudo up2date --nox -u

Comment 3 Chris Ricker 2003-04-11 12:31:39 UTC
And on a third machine, I just got a similar meaningless SSL error when I tried
to up2date:

[kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ sudo up2date --nox -u
There was an SSL error: [('SSL routines', 'SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO', 'unknown
protocol')]
A common cause of this error is the system time being incorrect. Verify that the
time on this system is correct.
[kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ 

This machine, like the other two, is time-synchronized using ntpd, so the
explanation is nonsense here too....

Comment 4 David Villace 2003-08-29 09:10:48 UTC
I only write 'up2date' command and I have the same error and I have
time-synchronized using ntpd too

Comment 5 Mihai Ibanescu 2004-10-07 04:51:47 UTC
Should be fixed in newer rhnlib packages I believe...
