How do you fix UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY

[Prabu N]

I am able to deploy after setting "set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0". But during tunnelling, i get below error.

FetchError: request to https://jira/rest/api/3/myself failed, reason: unable to get local issuer certificate at ClientRequest. (webpack://jira-global-page-ui-kit/node_modules/node-fetch/lib/index.mjs:1495:1) at ClientRequest.emit (node:events:531:35) at emitErrorEvent (node:_http_client:108:11) at TLSSocket.socketErrorListener (node:_http_client:511:5) at TLSSocket.emit (node:events:531:35) at emitErrorNT (node:internal/streams/destroy:169:8) at emitErrorCloseNT (node:internal/streams/destroy:128:3) at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21) { type: 'system', errno: 'UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY', code: 'UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY' }

It works fine in personal laptop. But not in office laptop (zscaler/firewall might be the reason). But I would like to know how we can resolve this.

I saw there was a suggestion to add NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS to env variable I did with a CER file i found under trusted certificates. But still facing same error.

Hi @Prabu N 

I think the same as you assume, like the issue you are facing is from zScaler fire wall.

I think you can try the below solution worked for some one else for other software installation.
