SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED in swaglogger.py

[dotbanana]

I started digging around the code in the plugins and found https://gw.swop.one/ in swaglogger. This seems to be quite nice. But my plugin on Windows7 throws a "SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED"-Error.
Is there some workaround to fix this? Tried to set a manual certificate-file from verisign by
resp = urllib2.urlopen(request, json.dumps(resp_json), cafile="verisign.pem")
in SwagLogger, but it does not help.

Hi, I'm the dev of Swag. Strange error. I'm not really experienced with SSL certificates. For Swag I use normal webspace with a basic free certificate from Symantec. I just needed to click that I want it and it worked instantly. :) Sry, if that doesnt help at all. :/

Here is a full screenshot of the log in my cmd (I am starting SWProxy with --no-gui flag):

I guess the error is described in this recent article: https://access.redhat.com/articles/2039753
I am going to fiddle around a bit with the workarounds for this i can find on the net - if i find something, i am going to report here. ty for your quick response 👍

Okay i found a workaround for me:
First i downloaded the main cacert.pem from https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html, put it into the same folder where SWProxy.exe resides, and modified the file \plugins\SwagLogger.py in line 40 to:
resp = urllib2.urlopen(request, json.dumps(resp_json), cafile="cacert.pem")

Now no error is dropping and the results are popping up on https://gw.swop.one/.
I hope this is helping if someone has the same problem. :)

Nice. Thanks for that solution. Hard to test it for me if it works. Its probably because I use W10 and the certificate was already preinstalled. Whatever, glad it works. :)
