The following is the error I receive when trying to update Event Espresso to the latest version.
Enabling Maintenance mode…
Updating Plugin Event Espresso (1/1)
Downloading update from …
An error occurred while updating Event Espresso: Download failed. SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed.
I have had no other issues downloading/updating Is this an EE error, or something on my side that I’ve missed?
Sorry for the slow reply… I still have the same error when trying to update

I ran into something similar when working on an other site. This can be caused by an out of date CA certificate on the server -or- may be due to running on an old Microsoft IIS server. I ended up bypassing the CA cert check so the update would work. This involved hacking the PUE-client file in the event-espresso plugin. Someone else in the forums reported they did the same thing, only they used a simpler method by adding this function to their theme’s functions.php file:
What I found was I only had to bypass the SSL check that one time. When the next version was ready, the 1-click update worked without any bypassing or errors.
