[SOLVED] Certificate problem during installation

Hello everyone :)

, I'm encountering a certificate error while installing WAPT server version 1.7.4.
The server machine is running Debian 9.9.0.

When I run the command "wget ​​-O - https://wapt.tranquil.it/debian/tiswapt-pub.gpg | apt-key add -" I get this error message:

Picture

I've also checked the server's connectivity and I have no name resolution problems.

Thank you for your help!

The certificate on the website is recognized by an up-to-date Debian system and is valid until June 20, 2020. Therefore, two options are most likely:
* The root certificates are not up to date on the machine (but I would be surprised given the version)
* You have a filtering firewall that does a man-in-the-middle attack with a wildcard certificate that needs to be deployed on all machines (that's not good).

Hello dcardon,

Thank you for your reply.

We resolved the issue by directly importing the tiswapt-pub.gpg file (via WinSCP) onto our server and running the command "apt-key add tiswapt-pub.gpg".

However, there is almost certainly a certificate problem on our firewall. We will investigate this carefully.

Best regards.
