Cannot run git nor brew: 'SSL: can't load CA certificate file ~/Documents/Certificates.pem'
Hello All,
0. Firstly, I am not very Unix savvy. For instance, I don't know what the purpose of certificates are, and I don't know if this is the right forum for this question.
1. The problem: I can't use homebrew or use git. Running git pull, for instance, gives the following error:
Also, if I try to install brew, it claims to be installed, but if I then run
, it complains that
. Although after a failed git pull, it will try to install brew and then eventually crash with the same message about Certificates.pem. (A sample session with these errors is included in the appendix of this question.)
2. some things I know about the problem:
a. The problem first occurred when I upgraded to Yosemite from Maverics on my macbook pro non-retina (3 months old) a few months ago. After migrating my data (but NOT my applications, as they were causing Migration Assistant to crash) to a brand new Macbook pro retina, the problem persists.
b. It is entirely likely that I modified some important file (like .profile) in a destructive way some time in the past, while trying to install something beyond my knowledge. I suspect that something like this is the culprit.
c. "~/Documents/Certificates.pem" isn't found in google search, so I suspect already that there is something fishy with this.
d. There appears to expired certificate in Certificates.pem
e. Macports, Octave and TexWorks might have been involved in Migration Assistant crashing, and which may or may not be a related problem.
