• Hi,
    When we use an Hosting with SSL Certificat genereted by Lets Encrypt like OVH Hosting, we meet an Error when execute Backup Job.
    If we switch on unsecured protocol in WordPresse->General-> Root URL, All is fine.

    So, perhaps you have a bug with LetsEncrypt Root authority.

    Thank in advance for all of LetsEncrypt users.
    So Thanks for your Plugins quality and reactivity.

  • Hallo,

    BackWPup has no problems with LetsEncrypt. It can be only that the server or WordPress has a old root certificates file for use with curl.

    I use LetsEncrypt self on my website.

    Hello,

    I have got the same configuration and the same error with Lets Encrypt:
    error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol

    Thank you for your help

    Hello,

    I have tried the solution you propose, like install the plugin backwpup-disable-ssl-verify or comment lines in the file class-page-jobs.php but it’s not working…
    I also regenerate the SSL Certificat.

    Your plugin is awesome and i hope there is a solution.

    Thanks.

    With WordPRess Version did you use? What did your hoster say about that. Also you can try this plugin https://marketpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/backwpup-disable-local-ssl-verify.zip

    Thanks for your answer.

    I use WordPress 4.5.2 and 4.6, it’s the same problem.
    Sadly, your solution is not working.
    My hoster is OVH with Lets Encrypt (the same configuration like julienstien).
    cURL version: 7.21.0
    cURL SSL version: OpenSSL/0.9.8o

    Hello,

    It appears the backup work correctly with the CRON, it’s only when i launch a backup manualy that’s didn’t work.

    did you have tested the plugin i sugest above. That is an other that you alredy tesetd.

    Yes i have tested the two plugins

    Same problem here. I installed the “disable ssl” plugin but no change.

    Hello,

    can one of you, setup a installation, for testing for me. I need FTP and WP Admin for that. Please don’t give me your live blog data. Send it to support at backwpup dot com. Than i can have a deeper look in.

    Hello,

    Same problem.
    I talked to OVH support.
    SSL is only on frontend, webserver 443 is not secured from local server.
    We may have to change protocol when connecting from local server.

    Hi Daniel and vincenzo75

    I have the same problem, and Daniel’s plugin doesn’t change anything.
    The scheduled backup via a cron job works fine, but the “run now” issues an error, that same:

    Server self connect:	Not expected HTTP response:
       WP Http Error: error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol

    Have you guys found a solution?
    My host is OVH as well (Perso 2014). I have read that they disabled SSLv3 and one must use TLS >= 1.0.
    Does that help?

    Thanks,

    jb

    Hello jbd7,

    The backup works fine with the cron but it doesn’t work when i launch a backup manually.
    So it’s workable for me.

    I see.
    I have a website on which even the cron job doesn’t even start, after moving to HTTPS

    Hello,
    I also have the same configuration and the same mistake with Lets Encrypt:
    error: SSL routines :: 140770FC of SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO: unknown protocol
    I am also at ovh.
    At home nothing works (not the CRON or manually)
    I installed the extension you advise but it changes nothing.
    What to do please?
    Thank you for your help
