SSL Error in RovoDev CLI: Missing Authority Key Identifier

Key Wang

Hi there,

I'm trying to use the RovoDev CLI, but I am encountering an SSL certificate error. Could you please assist me in resolving this issue?

Attached below is the log output from my terminal.

Hello @Key Wang

Your log is failing at the SSL certificate validation step while the CLI tries to fetch config, and the error is CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED / Missing Authority Key Identifier.

That usually points to a local proxy / TLS inspection / certificate-chain problem.

The first thing to check is whether you are behind a corporate network, VPN, proxy, or endpoint security tool that is re-signing HTTPS traffic. Atlassian’s own CLI guidance calls out proxy environments as a common source of SSL errors.

Try the same command from a clean network like a hotspot. If it works there, your network/security team will need to fix or bypass the TLS inspection path for the Atlassian endpoints the CLI uses.

Hi @Arkadiusz Wroblewski

Thank you very much for your help.

Due to strict security policies, I can only connect to the company's Wi-Fi, so I cannot test this on another network.

I have tried the methods you provided and also consulted AI tools. However, since my company doesn't use a proxy server, the problem is still unresolved.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can try.

This strict polices can be also a reason so you should Adress that probably to you IT Team.

To resolve a similar issue, I contacted support and had them file a request for an optional feature that allows you to specify a custom CA in the Rovo Dev CLI.

Please vote in favor!

[ROVODEV-25] Support for Custom CA Certificates in Rovo Dev CLI - Create and track feature requests for Atlassian products.

Thanks.
