Ignore "certificate Unknown" Alert

I have the following simple Python script: import socket import ssl if __name__ == '__main__': s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) s.bind('', 443) s.

Solution 1:

Try catching the exception and ignoring it. It is supposed to be non-fatal.

sslconn = ssl.wrap_socket(conn, server_side=True, certfile="server.crt",
                          keyfile="server.key", cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_NONE,
                          do_handshake_on_connect=False)
try:
    sslconn.do_handshake()
except ssl.SSLError, err:
    if err.args[1].find("sslv3 alert") == -1:
        raise
