Django paypalrestsdk错误-OpenSSL.SSL.Error：[（“ SSL例程”，“ tls_process_server_certificate”，“证书验证失败”））

Question

I am programming on Django and using paypalrestsdk https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-Python-SDK

I am getting this error:

OpenSSL.SSL.Error: [('SSL routines', 'tls_process_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')]

Basically I have created BillingPlan(code snippet https://gist.github.com/axilaris/2f9cf8f5c27a8a2095c5c9abf0dc4121 ), and this appears:

How do I resolve this error ? Thanks.

my environment:

pyOpenSSL==17.5.0
paypalrestsdk==1.13.1 
Django==1.11.7
cryptography==2.1.3

PayPal's APIs require TLS 1.2 and my guess is that your underlying installed version of OpenSSL is a bit too old to support it.

Use the following to determine what version of OpenSSL you've got installed:

>>> import ssl
>>> print ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION
OpenSSL 1.0.2m  2 Nov 2017

If you're on anything lower than 1.0.1, you'll likely want to upgrade it using brew . In my experience, Mac OS X can have quite antiquated versions of it; I think mine was as low as 0.9.8.

Once you've upgraded OpenSSL and confirmed that in the python shell you see the new version, you can test it by running your code. If it still doesn't work, I suggest running the following to get some more fine-grained detail on the connection health:

openssl s_client -showcerts -connect api.sandbox.paypal.com:443
