Homebrew gives SSL error (SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL) on home network
A thought occurs to me -- have you checked your router to see if it is doing a transparent proxy for you?
If it is, then you may want to turn that off.
If you can't turn it off, then you might want to install a VPN solution that will allow you to bypass it.
Just a thought.
Since you're using LibreSSL
, try re-installing curl
with OpenSSL
instead of Secure Transport.
The latest brew
, it depends on OpenSSL by default, so you've to reinstall it:
brew reinstall curl
For older Brew, there was an option --with-openssl
which was removed, e.g.
brew reinstall curl --with-openssl
Here are few other suggestions:
- Run
brew options curl
to display install options specific to formula. - Compile from the source. Check
curl.rb
formula for more details. - Make sure you're not using
http_proxy
/https_proxy
. - Use
-v
tocurl
for more verbose output. - Try using BSD
curl
at/usr/bin/curl
, runwhich -a curl
to list them all. - Make sure you haven't accidentally blocked
curl
in your firewall (such as Little Snitch). - Alternatively use
wget
.
For those who are still struggling to resolve this.
Please try:
brew update-reset
brew update # This might not be needed.
