UpdraftPlus Bad Response for Google Drive

  • Hi,

    I’ve installed Updraftplus, Ive entered all the correct details for Google drive, Client secret and Client ID both correct.

    When i click on the authorisation link and allow i get a red banner at the top of the plugin page saying ‘Bad Response’

    Any ideas on how to fix this? Any help much appreciated…

    P.s i’m using version 1.3.15

    Ok, that seemed to have worked to get more error detail. this is what i get now –

    Bad response from Google: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed.

    Phew!

    What that error message means is that your web hosting provider does not have SSL certificates properly installed. Those are needed to verify that you’re really talking to Google, and not to a third-party who was interposed themselves. You’ll need to raise a ticket with your web hosting provider to fix that. If they can’t help, then I recommend Simba Hosting – https://www.simbahosting.co.uk.

    Oh right, at least you managed to find the problem.

    Do SSL certificated usually have to be purchased do you know?

    Thanks for getting to the bottom of this, when i eventually get this working i will be sure to donate for your hard work.

    Thank you… You won’t have to pay them anything, no. The SSL certificate that’s faulty is one of the “root” or “master” certificates installed in their PHP install which is used to verify the SSL certificates of remote sites. Every web browser and server has them all installed, and uses them to verify remote websites – but in this case, they are installed wrongly (or out-of-date).
