SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not ok Error

[jordlang01]

Hello,

Over the past couple of days, I've been getting the error below when trying to download a KEGG pathway:

trying URL 'https://rest.kegg.jp/get/mmu04670/kgml' Error in download.file(url, destfile = tmp) : cannot open URL 'https://rest.kegg.jp/get/mmu04670/kgml' In addition: Warning message: In download.file(url, destfile = tmp) : URL 'https://rest.kegg.jp/get/mmu04670/kgml': status was 'SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK'

Specifically it says that the ;status was 'SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK'. I'm unsure what that means. Any advice would be much appreciated. I even get this error when I run the example below in the getKGMLurl documentation:

asConnection <- RCurl::url.exists(getKGMLurl("cel00010")) if(hasConnection) { tmp <- tempfile() retrieveKGML(pathwayid='00010', organism='cel', destfile=tmp, method="auto") } else { warnings("No connection to KEGG webservice") }

The error is:

Warning message: In download.file(url, destfile = tmp) : URL 'https://rest.kegg.jp/get/mmu04670/kgml': status was 'SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK' No connection to KEGG webservice

Thank you, Jordan
