Need suggestion:- Failed HTTPS transfer to https://supportfiles.sun.com/curl

Hi Guys,

I have recently started reciving below Error message

Code:
Failed HTTPS transfer to https://supportfiles.sun.com/curl

whenever I run

Code:
/usr/local/bin/sudo /opt/SUNWexplo/bin/explorer -P -q -v

from all Servers.

Looks like the SSL certificate as Expired.


Whenever I type this https://supportfiles.sun.com in address bar I get below message before proceeding .


So I need to know that first whose job is to update/provide this certificate, Network Team or we Unix team.

If Unix Team on which Server do we need to update this as from all Servers when we execute explorer we get below message:-

Code:

It seems like it wants to install curl! Perhaps you should install it and see where it goes from there?

Clients do not need their own certificates, servers do, but clients have root certificates to verify the server's certificates. Sometimes the roots get aged out. They are usually updated with the containing package, like curl.

BTW, explorer docs: Contents Sounds like you are missing the Prereq: https://blogs.oracle.com/frontline/entry/upload

Hi Guys,
I need to know where exactly I need to implement this certificate, i really have NO idea about it.
However when I changed this entries in file
Code:
/etc/opt/SUNWexplo/default/explorer

from
Code:
# Where explorer output should be posted
EXP_TRANSPORT="https://supportfiles.sun.com/curl"

to
Code:
# 
# Where explorer output should be posted
EXP_TRANSPORT="http://transport.oracle.com/curl"

I got below messaage , the data was sent to Oracle.
Code:
Dec 31 09:34:32 server31[18723] explorer:  explorer.844d540d.server31-2013.12.31.08.26.tar.gz created
Dec 31 09:34:32 server31[18723] explorer:  explorer.844d540d.server31-2013.12.31.08.26.tar.gz sent to http://transport.oracle.com/curlDec 31 09:34:33 server31[18723] explorer:  Removing previous explorers from /opt/SUNWexplo/output ...
Dec 31 09:34:42 server31[18723] explorer:  Explorer finished

So I need to know where exactly is the problem and where I need to do required changes?
As far as the current Curl package is concerned it had wordk properly with 8.01 Sun Explorer version for last 3 weeks.
Please advise, what I need to do here to resolve the issue.
Thanks.

It seems like you could install these in a file and point to them with that option: http://www.geotrust.com/resources/root-certificates/
