Error while running the first App Builder project

Avatar

Level 2

Hello,

 

I am trying to run a App Builder project with the following command:

aio app run

 

However, I am getting this error in the terminal:

OpenWhiskError: Unknown Error From API: self signed certificate in certificate chain

 

Please let me know what's wrong.

 

Regards,

Saif

Hi @Saif - are you following the guidance to write your first App Builder? https://github.com/AdobeDocs/project-firefly/blob/master/getting_started/first_app.md

Does the error disappear if you terminate the current run command and start a new one?

For future questions regarding App Builder, feel free to post directly in the App BuilderForum: https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/project-firefly/ct-p/project-firefly

@duypnguyen I followed the guidance and the error is still there even if I terminate the current run command and start a new one.

@Saif - could you share the output of this command `aio info` ?

Thanks for sharing the info @Saif . I don't see any problem with the setup, all versions are up to date.

 

There is a .env file inside your project directory. Do you see: AIO_runtime_apihost=https://adobeioruntime.net ? If not please add it.

It's possible that you have a different host in ~/.wskprops.

Hi,

 

I was never able to find the cause of this issue. But I would like to point out that after trying it again now, I am getting a different error. It says "Error: Unknown Error From API: unable to get local issuer certificate".

 

I would love to have some answers here so that I can start exploring App Builder.

@Saif - based on the previous conversation, it seemed that your connection is blocked by a firewall.

Did you have a chance to work with your IT department on how to overcome it?

I contacted the IT department. They are asking what exactly the "aio app run" command does. I need to tell them which endpoint it is exactly trying to connect to so that they can whitelist it.

Endpoints for updating Runtime actions are:

adobeioruntime.net 

*.adobeioruntime.net 

If you project has a UI, it will need to upload static files to our CDN. The upload URL can be dynamic based on the backend system so I can not confirm it. Currently it's uploaded to AWS S3.

I can give them the mentioned endpoints but when I ping adobeioruntime.net, I get the response as expected:

Also, for the static files upload URL,  I found the following URL mentioned as "app_url" in the .aio file:

*.adobeio-static.net
Do you think this could be it?

As per the IT team, api.amplitude.com is blocked on the network by them. Is "aio app run" command dependent on it? If yes then they can unblock it.
