pkg warning for missing LE E7 cert
-
Upgraded my 6100 to 26.07.b.20260702.2342 this morning, and in the spirit of updating, decided to bump my tailscale version to 1.98.8_1
pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:16:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.98.8_1.pkgGot this...
Certificate verification failed for /C=US/O=Let's Encrypt/CN=E7 10B0C68ADA040000:error:0A000086:SSL routines:tls_post_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:/var/jenkins/workspace/pfSense-Plus-snapshots-26_07-main/sources/FreeBSD-src-plus-RELENG_26_07/crypto/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:2125: Certificate verification failed for /C=US/O=Let's Encrypt/CN=E7 10B0C68ADA040000:error:0A000086:SSL routines:tls_post_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:/var/jenkins/workspace/pfSense-Plus-snapshots-26_07-main/sources/FreeBSD-src-plus-RELENG_26_07/crypto/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:2125: Certificate verification failed for /C=US/O=Let's Encrypt/CN=E7 10B0C68ADA040000:error:0A000086:SSL routines:tls_post_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:/var/jenkins/workspace/pfSense-Plus-snapshots-26_07-main/sources/FreeBSD-src-plus-RELENG_26_07/crypto/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:2125: pkg: https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:16:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.98.8_1.pkg: Authentication errorWhat's the correct move here? Manually add the cert?
Here's a screenshot of my CA screen

Also see this ancient redmine: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10729 but not sure what came of that
I also tried
pkg-static clean -ay; pkg-static install -fy pkg; pkg-static install -xfy pfSense-repo pfSense-upgrade -
You can use
fetchthen add the local file withpkg. -
@marcosm Thank you. Yes that works. I also found another method:
export PKG_ENV='{SSL_CA_CERT_FILE: "/etc/ssl/cert.pem"}' pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:16:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.98.8_1.pkg -
Also:
env PKG_ENV='{SSL_CA_CERT_FILE: "/etc/ssl/cert.pem"}' pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:16:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.98.8_1.pkg -
