We\'re trying to use Node.js (and Mocha) as a testing framework to test API calls against an internal server over https. We\'re using the following node modules: Mocha, Restify

Answer 1

I had got the same problem of rest of mine done by https. When I connect with my node clients I obtain those error. The solution for me is to use intermediate certificate.

var key_content  =     fs.readFileSync('./resources/certificates/foo/foo.es_private_key.key');
var cert_content =  fs.readFileSync('./resources/certificates/foo/foo.es_ssl_certificate.crt');
var ca_content   =  fs.readFileSync('./resources/certificates/foo/_.foo.es_ssl_certificate_INTERMEDIATE.crt');

var options = {
  key:  key_content,
  cert: cert_content,
  ca: ca_content
};

var server = https.createServer(options, app);
