Python request fails to verify certificate

Help
1

I have cert-manager setup for requesting LetsEncrypt wildcard certificate (*.qa.lightcloud.com) and store it in a secret qa-cert. This secret is used by Traefik (IngressRoute) for tls

IngressRoute 
apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1
kind: IngressRoute
metadata:
  name: app-external-secure
  namespace: qa
spec:
  entryPoints:
    - websecure
  routes:
    - match: Host(`qa.lightcloud.com`)
      kind: Rule
      services:
        - name: nginx
          port: 80
      middlewares:
        - name: secured-restricted
  tls:
    secretName: qa-cert

I have *.qa.lightcloud.com & C=US /O=Let's Encrypt /CN=R3 certificate stored in a secret qa-cert (tls.crt) which I have verified using Certificate Checker - Verify and Decode Intermediate Certificates | KeyCDN Tools and didn't find any issue with it.

This URL (https://qa.lightcloud.com) works in most of the browsers (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox). But python request lib fails with

import requests
requests.get('https://qa.lightcloud.com')

requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='qa.domain.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, u'[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:727)'),))

python urllib2 lib fails as well

import urllib2
response = urllib2.urlopen('https://qa.lightcloud.com')

urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:727)>

How can I fix this ?

That URL is not using a Let's Encrypt certificate:

Certificate chain
 0 s:C = US, ST = New Jersey, L = Northvale, O = RAB Lighting Inc, CN = *.lightcloud.com
   i:C = US, O = DigiCert Inc, CN = DigiCert SHA2 Secure Server CA

@rp346,

Remember that *.qa.lightcloud.com doesn't match qa.lightcloud.com.

Your older Let's Encrypt certificate covered both, but your newer one doesn't.

https://crt.sh/?q=*.qa.lightcloud.com

I don't know for sure whether that's related, but it sure feels like it could be!
