while Using the curl command from a Linux (not a Mac) system to access https://ssl-failure.thousandeyes.net results in an error. However, opening this site in a web browser such as Chrome appears not to generate an error. how is this?

    ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=ssl-failure.thousandeyes.net => "This server's certificate chain is incomplete. Grade capped to B." Browsers can sometimes complete a chain using AIA or cache, but curl -- at least builds using OpenSSL or NSS -- does not; maybe MacOS SecureTransport does. Check curl -V to confirm what it is using.

From man:




 -k/--insecure
(SSL) This option explicitly allows curl to perform "insecure" SSL connections and transfers. All SSL connections are attempted to be made secure by using
the CA certificate bundle installed by default. This makes all connections considered "insecure" fail unless -k/--insecure is used.



You are trying to access a secure(SSL) site use -k option to allows curl to perform "insecure" SSL connections and transfers.



curl -k 'https://ssl-failure.thousandeyes.net/'
