I am trying to use curl and git on my machine with Ubuntu. I was going through a tutorial to set up vim and was encountering an issue with certificates. I ran
sudo curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim
and I get the following error:
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0
curl: (77) error setting certificate verify locations:
CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
CApath: /etc/ssl/certs
Similarly when I try to run a git clone I get the following error.
Cloning into '/home/umar/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git/': server certificate verification failed. CAfile: none CRLfile: none
I checked if /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt exists and it does. I am quite new to linux and have a very basic understanding of certificates. What might be causing these issues?
