SSL Error While Installing Dev Environment Summary
Linh_Vo is experiencing an SSL error while trying to create a Discourse development environment using vagrant up. jomaxro requested more details, and Linh_Vo shared a screenshot of the error.
jomaxro clarified that the issue is related to creating a development environment, not deploying a production site. After investigating, jomaxro was unable to replicate the issue and suspected a network or firewall issue.
Linh_Vo revealed that their company prohibits downloads from cloud storage services like Dropbox, which is likely causing the issue. jomaxro suggested possible workarounds, including downloading the file from another network, copying it to the system, and modifying the Vagrant file, or seeking assistance from IT to allow access to Dropbox.
OK…can you provide more details on what’s not working? We can’t even try to provide support with zero details.
Wait a second. vagrant up? Are you trying to create a development environment or deploy a production Discourse site?
I try to create a development environment.
Ah, I see now. Didn’t read the error close enough. Let me check something…
Edit: I’m able to start the download of the file mentioned in the screenshot on my end, so I’m not sure what you’re encountering here.
What type of network are you on? Any firewalls or proxies?
My company prohibits any download from cloud store like Dropbox so there is any way to overcome it
Hmm…you should be able to download the file from another network, copy it to your system somehow (like a flashdrive) and then modify the vagrant file to point to the local file. Alternatively, if you are setting up a Discourse dev instance for company purposes, you could try asking IT if they can assist in letting your system access Dropbox.
