1st Attempt

• Getting started

SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain

solution: include -c http.sslVerify=false as in docker run --name repo alpine/git -c http.sslVerify=false clone https://github.com/docker/getting-started.git

• This got me to step 2 – Build where I have hit the certificate error again!

An unexpected error occurred: “https://registry.yarnpkg.com/debug/-/debug-2.6.9.tgz: self signed certificate in certificate chain”

solution: add RUN yarn config set strict-ssl false before the call to yarn

NOTE: it is bad to disable ssl

• anther certificate chain error

solution: forget it – getting started doesn’t work inside a secure company network
