Having a certificate problem

[direwolf2020]

When I try to run the release note generator, I am receiving a certificate error:

Starting: Generate Release Notes based on Release Comparison API

Task : Generate Release Notes (Crossplatform)
Description : Generates a release notes file in a format of your choice from the build or release history
Version : 4.4.1

Help : Version: 4.4.1. More Information

Creating Azure DevOps API connections for https://xxx.xxx.xxx/Apps/ with 'allowRetries' set to 'true' and 'maxRetries' count to '20'
Creating the credential handler from the OAUTH token

I believe I the cert assigned everywhere....any other places I should look?

Thanks!

All the URL handling for the API is automatically managed using Azure DevOps environment variables, so there are no settings to alter related to URLs or Certs,

Are you trying to use this with an on premises Azure DevOps Server, if so which version?

[direwolf2020]

It is an on premises install. We are running Azure DevOps Server 2020 Update 1.1 (18.181.31626.1). I've tried everything that I can think of to get it to recognize the certificate!

Have you looked at

• Unable to get local issuer certificate error for Generate Release Notes (Crossplatform) #801 - a workaround using a PAT
• Error: unable to verify the first certificate #842 - incorrectly assign self signed cert

[direwolf2020]

I'm really new to setting this up, so I didn't understand what to do in some of the suggestions. I set the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = 0, and now I am receiving this error message: ##[error]Error: {"$id":"1","innerException":null,"message":"TF400813: Resource not available for anonymous access. Client authentication required.","typeName":"Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server.UnauthorizedRequestException, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server","typeKey":"UnauthorizedRequestException","errorCode":0,"eventId":3000}

Can you run the build with the variable

system.debug=true

And send the detailed run log so I can try to see what is going on. I need to see when the error is occurring so we can link it back to the code.

Also what version of azure devops server are you using, I assume it is not azure devops services

[direwolf2020]

I ran the release with the debug set, but it returned the same messages. Should this task be run on the release pipeline, or just the pipeline itself?

The task should work a YAML Builds and both classic Build and Release, is the error the first thing in the task's log file?

Did

• Unable to get local issuer certificate error for Generate Release Notes (Crossplatform) #801 - a workaround using a PAT
• Error: unable to verify the first certificate #842 - incorrectly assign self signed cert

help?
