I received the following error when installing the hdf5 submodule:

To fix this issue, I manually downloaded the hdf5 tar.gz file, but I wanted to alert you to this potential problem. Thank you.

Work for me on Windows: update git to latest version (2.16) and remove old version ( 1.9)

[ravisingla]

I have upgraded with latest version (2.16) but still face the same problem. Can you please help me to sort out the issue? error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version

[jonathan1055]

I have this problem too. It is caused by https://githubengineering.com/crypto-removal-notice/

I've updated to latest git (2.3.5 because I am using an old mac), updated to OpenSSL 1.1.0g (Nov 2017) and also set the git config to use tlsv1.2 by doing git config --global --add http.sslVersion tlsv1.2. Still I get the same error about 'tlsv1 alert protocol version'

[ravisingla]

Its working for me now with the help of git config to use tlsv1.2 by doing git config --global --add http.sslVersion tlsv1.2

Thanks Jonathan

[jonathan1055]

That's great, thanks for the reply ravisingla. Now I know that the config bit does work (for you). So something is still forcing my git to use tlsv1.

---

edit: For the record, and to help others maybe, I discovered that the reason my git was ignoring http.sslVersion=tlsv1.2 in config is that this feature was introduced in Git 2.6 and I am on 2.3.5 (the latest built git installer compatible with Mac 10.8 Mountain Lion. I now need to make and compile my own Git using newer source code)

[hukai916]

I had a similar problem (OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version) when downing from GitHub using wget. Tried all above, none worked out. Then I upgrade wget from 1.5 to 1.9, then wget is back to live. I guess the old wget is not compatible with some of the newest dependencies.

[tejkiranchambal]

I had also older version of git and now I am using git version 2.16.3.windows.1. Its working for me now with the help of git config to use tlsv1.2 by doing git config --global --add http.sslVersion tlsv1.2 Remember go to git shell and run the above command.

[il-bianco]

I'm using git version 2.3.5 on mac osx 10.8.5 and I'm having the same issue: OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version I'm pretty sure I'm using tlsv1.2 running: openssl s_client -connect www.usatoday.com:443 So why running "git clone something" I get the "tlsv1 alert protocol version" error?

[delasource]

I face the same issues on a clients webhosting. I confirmed that openssl was outdated:

#> openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010

I guess that has to do with this. I'm asking the host provider to update his system.

[psyborg55]

Then I upgrade wget from 1.5 to 1.9

wtf you sayin, 1.9 is from 2003.

[EZZAHED]

This git command resolved my problem git config --global --add http.sslVersion tlsv1.2 Hope so for you

re installing wget using brew worked for me: brew install wget brew link --overwrite wget

[arthare]

Updating wget on windows (and updating my git version to get a new mingw openssl) solved it for me on windows. I used chocolatey install wget to get wget updated.
