Certificate error #41

Closed wegner94 closed 5 years ago

wegner94 commented 5 years ago

Error every time when I try to download: 'URL: http://www.wuxiaworld.com/novel/talisman-emperor/te-book-1-chapter-1, URLError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1051)'

It suddenly appeared; I have downloaded several light novels before without any problems. I tried one that worked for me before (Martial World) but it didn't work either.

Could you provide your operating system and python version?

Also check out this link with a fix for this issue.

Windows 7 Python 3.7.1

Well no idea why this is happening but considering the use-case of this script, it's probably safe to disable the ssl verification. Will remove it in a couple of hours if I don't forget it.

Thanks

It seems I did forget it. If you still have the problem feel free to try out this side project of mine that should work more consistently across operating systems.
