GCP Quickstart SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL

For engineers

Hey there, I’m trying to follow along with the GCP Quickstart guide and I’m running into an issue with sending a test events.

When I send a test event, I receive this error:

*   Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443...
* Connected to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) port 443 (#0)
* ALPN, offering h2
* ALPN, offering http/1.1
* successfully set certificate verify locations:
*  CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
*  CApath: /etc/ssl/certs
* TLSv1.3 (OUT), TLS handshake, Client hello (1):
* OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443 
* Closing connection 0
curl: (35) OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443

My networking knowledge is pretty limited, so I’d appreciate any pointers or help with debugging this. Let me know if there’s any other information I can provide to help.

Thanks!

Hi @awlui ,

Welcome to Snowplow community !

  1. Are you sending the requests through a proxy ? It could be this error.

  2. Have you tried sending an event with something else than curl ? E.g. using a Javascript tracker
