x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

akamai install purge doesn't seem to be working. Error is being thrown each time, regardless of the method used and whether or not force is used.

Unable to clone repository: Get https://github.com/akamai/cli-purge.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

@RJHBookLinux I suspect this is due to your local git config; can you run git clone https://github.com/akamai/cli-purge.git on your system?

@dshafik thanks for the quick reply. I did try that already, which works just fine oddly enough. Any other ideas?

@dshafik I found a similar thread on Akamai community, but don't see a concrete solution..

I am facing the same issue. Git clone directly works on my machine, but when I use the Akamai package manager I am getting x509 error. Is there a way we can run a verbose install so I can see where the issue might be?

We have installed the version 1.1.5(akamai CLI) Still no luck :-(

@suresh0512 , @nighthauk : I have encountered this error running akamai cli 1.2.1 inside of an ubuntu container. I found a solution: apt install git and try once again to install the desired module once again.
