Continue operation on failed certificate verification

Lukas Brückner1

All my operations with the remote depository fail because of the following error:

abort: error: _ssl.c:499: error:14090086:SSL
routines:SSl3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed

We are using a self-generated certificate, and somehow cannot suppress that warning.

However, using terminal, my operations work fine after displaying the error. In SourceTree, all operations halt and I cannot find any option to ignore certificate verification failures.
Any workarounds would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Lukas

To set up your trust for the certificate, please take a look at this: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/CACertificates#Mac_OS_X_10.6_and_higher

SourceTree already configures a dummy PEM to make Mercurial check your Keychain for trusted certificates (unless you set the option manually yourself), but some people who have encountered this in the past have found they also needed to add the [hostfingerprints] configuration as described in the above page.
