Bug ID: 72247 Summary: http module in py3 doesnt detect and treat SSL certificate errors correctly Product: Pywikibot Version: core (2.0) Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: network Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: jayvdb@gmail.com Web browser: --- Mobile Platform: ---
Very closely related to bug 72009, the http module should detect SSL certificate errors and raise a FatalServerException so that api.py doesnt keep trying to connect. This works in py2, but py3 ssl error codes are different.
