curl: (60) server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none

i have a few servers likely installed with the same OS Ubuntu Xenial image, and only one of these servers show me an error when trying to fetch some famous websites in SSL :

curl

curl: (60) server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none

but fetching or works.

I've tried most answers seen around and none worked. Could such problem arise from the network outside my OS ?

I tried by my side and le curl fetches with success
Something may be wrong at your side (System Date & Time are ok?)

You could bypass certificate verification with the -k option of curl

curl -k 

I have Ubuntu 16.04 servers with curl version 7.47.0 and updating the certificates as suggested was not enough to resolve the issue.

The issue was resolved only after I downloaded and installed a statically liked curl version 7.79.1 from:

Download the binary that matches your OS architecture and rename it:

/usr/local/bin/curl

Enjoy.
