Update Failed: Download failed – v2.3.3

#94234

Having had to manually install the last version due to some glitch, See Thread, I get the same problem when trying to update to 2.3.3;
“Update Failed: Download failed. cURL error 51: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK”
Is there a fix for this issue, as I do not want to manually ftp into the site and update the files each time there is a new release?

Does your site have a self-generated SSL certificate, as this message is a server error. You can Google the actual error message and there a lot of hits, such as this:

OTOH. I had an issue with one of my site updating this morning, so I went in the plugin License settings and disconnected the license. I left it for 30 minutes, Went back, and re-entered my license key. If the green ‘Active’ message does not appear, give it another 30 minutes and check. For me the active label had now appeared. Then I tried to update and it worked.

But I did not see a cURL message like you have.

There is no SSL certificate installed on the website.

(I tried the licence de-activate/activate suggestion on the off-chance, but that didn’t work.)

What version do you have currently installed? If it is 2.3.1 or 2.3.2 you can simply deactivate and delete from WordPress and install the new version from your account download area. You cannot do this (safely) for v2.3.0 or earlier, but newer versions you can.

I manually uploaded 2.3.2 via ftp the other week.
So, if I de-activate and delete the Plugin from WordPress, presumably I lose the Search forms that I built and I’d have to rebuild those from scratch?

If you look in the Plugin Settings now, we have added a new setting to NOT delete forms unless you ask it to. This was new in v2.3.1. I have just done an update from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 this way on 2 sites and the forms are still there.

That worked. Thanks for your help.
