SSL/TLS error for UpgradeCheck

Good day,

I have this error;

Failed checking for updates System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel. at System.Net.WebClient.DownloadDataInternal(Uri address, WebRequest& request) at System.Net.WebClient.DownloadString(Uri address) at Octopus.Server.Schedules.CheckForOctopusUpgrades.CheckForUpdates() in Y:\work\refs\heads\master\source\Octopus.Server\Schedules\CheckForOctopusUpgrades.cs:line 104

Could you please advise as we want to keep up with Octopus updates?

Hi Shany,

Thanks for reaching out. We’ve seen a similar behavior related to an Azure issue a while back: https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/Issues/issues/1909 . How ofter are you getting these messages? Are you still able to see the update icon at the top right corner of the screen?

Thanks,

Dalmiro

We do not use azure and yes I see the update Icon.

Hi Shany,

That error shows up when the Octopus server tries to browse this URL: https://octopusdeploy.com/downloads/upgrade (hosted in Azure).

If you can see the update Icon and you are not frequently getting that error, then you’ll be fine. If you are getting that error way too often, please let us know.

Thanks,

Dalmiro

Good day,

Can you advise on what you guys at Octopus think that it would be the best practices for deployment to a web farm?

Would you guys recommend deploying to each webserver through octopus or to deploy to one server and setup replication between them?

Hi Shany,

That’ll really depend on your web farm setup. I’d personally rather deploy to each farm node to take advantage of the Octopus Deploy logging to make sure the app reached every single node on the farm.

Replication would work just as fine, but you’d have to manage one more thing in your pipeline (the replicator).

Thanks,

Dalmiro
