Fatal: unable to acess GIT SSl certificate problem: self signed

Question

When trying to setup Bamboo to connect to our GIT repo, I receive the following error

fatal: unable to access 'https://xxxxxx:8443/scm/xxxx/xxxx.git/': SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate

We do use a selfsigned cert, however in bitbucket I was able to fix that with the keytool and adding the cert to bitbucket. How can I fix this in bamboo?

I believe i have added the public into the CACerts using the portecle app.

Assuming Bamboo have no truststore configured it should use cacerts from JAVA to get the public certificates.

Not sure what you mean by GIT as a capability

Bamboo will use JGIT  (a Java embedded client of git) instead of GIT from your terminal. As a consequence the configuration to avoid the SSL Verification will not take effect.

This is our doc on how to configure it: Defining a new version control capability - Atlassian documentation.

No, didn't no i had to?

You don't need to do it, but it would be a good test to check if the problem is related to the GIT client used by Bamboo and the server environment variables loaded so far.

Yes

Good to know, that at least make sense if your configuration has already http.sslVerify option set to false.

I ran the following if thats what you mean.

Yes, that is what I was talking about.

Please share

* the full stack trace of the error reported here.
* is git capability configured?
* try to run a script task with the git command you need, so we can validate that this is achievable from Bamboo.

Some useful questions to more forward:

* Just to make sure, have you added the public certificate or the private one? (you need the public in Bamboo)
* Are you using GIT as a capability?
* Are you calling git commands from a script task?
* Is git working at the terminal, from outside Bamboo?
* Have you tried the git configuration suggested in the link I shared above?
