How can acme-client work with pebble?

[jiegao]

Hi,

I want to use pebble to test the flow, and the directory is https://pebble:14000/dir. However, I always got the below error:

pebble-pebble-1        | 2023/10/04 01:39:29 http: TLS handshake error from 10.30.50.4:53746: remote error: tls: unknown certificate authority

It seems that the client didn't accept pebble as a valid ca. I tried to copy the .pem file to /etc/ssl/certs and I also can do curl https://pebble:14000/dir without error after that, but I still experience same error when I try to use acme-client.

To be more specific, I used a cookbook called acme, and it fails at the below line.

43 acme_client.new_account(contact: contact, terms_of_service_agreed: true)

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks very much.

Pebble should work, that's how I do most of the development of this gem.

If you refer to Faraday, the underlying http client, it explain how to setup your own certificate chain

Exporting the file path to SSL_CERT_FILE as an environment variable is probably the easiest way.
