SSLError

I am trying to run the following:

region_a.earthdata_login(earthdata_uid, earthdata_email)

and am getting the following error

KeyError                                  Traceback (most recent call last)

I think the SSL certificate expired on 28 Feb 2023, looking at the screenshot in https://github.com/icesat2py/icepyx/issues/288#issuecomment-1060842078. This needs to be fixed on the NSIDC side, cc @betolink?

Hello! I am also seeing the same error when trying to download some Icesat-2 ATL08 data: requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='n5eil02u.ecs.nsidc.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /egi/capabilities/ATL08.005.xml (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:1131)'))) so thanks in advance for looking into this bug!

It's an expired SSL certificate like @weiji14 mentioned, I heard it will be fixed ASAP (today)

[manmeet3591]

@betolink can you please let me know if it has been fixed ?

[betolink]

@manmeet3591 As far as I know this got fixed yesterday.

Tried accessing https://n5eil02u.ecs.nsidc.org/egi/capabilities/ATL14.001.xml (had to enter my Earthdata username/password) and it looks like the certificate was updated on Thu, 02 Mar 2023 00:00:00 GMT.

FYI, next expiry date is Sun, 31 Mar 2024 23:59:59 GMT, just in case this issue pops up again next year :laughing: I'll close this issue for now, let us know though if things still aren't working.
