[SOLVED] Typo3 version 8 Could not access remote resource http://repositories.typo3.org/mirrors.xml.gz

Issue

I can curl to https://repositories.typo3.org/mirrors.xml.gz. although the message does say that there is a problem with the ssl certificate. So I know that there is no firewall rule preventing me contacting the url.

However, from the Typo3 back end I am unable to update the extensions list nor can I download any extensions.

I have curl set for downloads in the BackEnd.

I am on a 1&1 shared linux server. So have limited control over the environment.

I know that others have sought solutions to this but no solution has been successful for me as yet - and very few solutions have actually been provided.

Question

How can I configure Typo3 to download from the repository?

Solution

My answer is probably no real solution for your problem, but as I had the same problem on a 1&1 shared hosting server. I wrote to their support and got a reply after some days where they told me, that they have imported the CA certificate into the local certificate store. Now TER update in extension manager works fine again. Maybe 1&1 did roll out the CA certificate to all their "old" Debian system, so you should check if you are able to update extensions now.
