SSL connection error during Mac Sierra Install

AFNI Message Board
1

Hi All,
I’m trying to install afni on an older mac computer. I can’t get very far, when I copy and paste

cd
curl -O https://afni.nimh.nih.gov/pub/dist/bin/misc/@update.afni.binaries
tcsh @update.afni.binaries -package macos_10.12_local -do_extras

I get the following error:
OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
Unable to establish SSL connection.
** failed to download test file
(maybe package macos_10.12_local is not available)

computer information:
macOS High Sierra
Version 10.13.6

Let me know what you think,
Thanks for your help!

Hello,

It might be necessary to add the -no_cert_verify option to that @update.afni.binaries command. If that does not work, would you please show more of the output, up until the first error?

Thanks,

It didn’t work, i’ve included all of the output from the following line of code:

tcsh @update.afni.binaries -package macos_10.12_local -do_extras -no_cert_verify

I wonder whether you are using IPv6. But note that your original curl command worked to download the script, but now wget is failing. So how about (possibly instead of -no_cert_verify, which might not be needed) using curl.

Try adding -curl to the command.

Thanks,
