The Go TLS client does not trust the CA that signed the server's certificate.

OpenSSL: error:14094410:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert handshake failure (SSL alert number 40)

Nginx: [emerg] SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file("/etc/ssl/server.key") failed (SSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch)
The private key does not belong to the certificate configured in the server.
Apache: AH02240: Server should be SSL-aware but has no certificate configured / SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/ssl/x.crt' does not exist or is empty

Let's Encrypt: Fetching http://example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/token: Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)
The ACME validation server could not reach your server on port 80 within the timeout.
.NET: System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel
A .NET client could not validate the server certificate or negotiate TLS, so the HTTPS call failed.
NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID (certificate expired)
The site’s certificate has expired (or isn’t valid yet) — or the device clock is wrong.
Firefox: Peer's Certificate has expired. Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE
Firefox found an expired certificate in the chain presented by the server.
Certbot: Failed to renew certificate example.com with error — The following certs could not be renewed: /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem (failure)
`certbot renew` failed for one or more certificates, so they will expire if you don't fix it.
ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR (This site can't provide a secure connection)
The browser couldn’t negotiate TLS — the server sent an invalid response, often plain HTTP on the HTTPS port.
cURL error 35: OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to host:443
The TLS handshake failed — protocol/cipher mismatch, a proxy interfering, or the server closed the connection.
SMTP: [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number — SMTP over SSL on a STARTTLS port
Your client tried to start TLS immediately on a port where the server speaks plain SMTP first (or the reverse), so the handshake…
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: PKIX path building failed: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
Java doesn’t trust the server’s certificate chain (self-signed, corporate proxy CA, or missing intermediate).
Java: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: No subject alternative names matching IP address 10.0.0.5 found
Java checks the hostname against the certificate's SANs and found no matching entry (for DNS names or IPs).
Java: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure
The server rejected the Java client's TLS offer — no shared protocol/cipher, SNI issue or a required client certificate.
