[SOLVED] How to fix following ansible galaxy SSL error?

How to fix following ansible galaxy SSL error?

Started learning Ansible and want to facilitate ansible-galaxy search nginx command, but I'm getting:

ERROR! Unknown error when attempting to call Galaxy at 'https://galaxy.ansible.com/api/api': <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:852)>

Had try to use ansible-galaxy --ignore-certs search nginx and ansible-galaxy -c search nginx but now getting ansible-galaxy: error: unrecognized arguments: --ignore-certs for booth.

OS :

Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic

Ansible version:

ansible 2.9.5
  config file = /home/maciej/projects/priv/ansible_nauka/packt_course/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = ['/home/maciej/.ansible/plugins/modules', '/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
  ansible python module location = /home/maciej/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ansible
  executable location = /home/maciej/.local/bin/ansible
  python version = 3.6.9 (default, Jul 17 2020, 12:50:27) [GCC 8.4.0]

Solution

Had back to this issue... life is best motivator. What helped me is:

sudo update-ca-certificates --fresh
export SSL_CERT_DIR=/etc/ssl/certs
