Connection issue - Blue Tracker

Hi,
I have a random error while trying to connect to https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/ from my vps

An example with a simple wget :

wget https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/wvw/matches.json —no-check-certificate

I don’t have this error with another url (tried with several urls)…
I need to retry again and again until the error disappears. Has anyone solved this issue ?

Is this a regression you are seeing or a new machine you are querying from? I assume the latter. Perhaps the machine you are querying from doesn’t have some standard root certificates installed. Ensure the GeoTrust Global CA cert in installed on your machine.
