I get this with wget (and CB2.0)
Code:
--2018-07-22 11:08:49--  https://waf.comodo.com/api/da_vendor?file=cwaf_rules-1.172.tgz

I get this on a Debian 7 system only..... Does this mean the CA root is missing? apt-get did remove a lot of root/cacerts in the recent update. :confused:

However, curl works fine.

Anyone seen this before?

EDIT:

NB. I can wget other sites with ssl.

Well, it removed a lot from the directory itself after recent update..... So, not sure what I can do...... A bit weird that curl works though.
 
I can confirm this is a Wheezy issue (used a test box), I understand it's EOL but it's only to comodo it fails.

Anyone here have a Wheezy box still? Can you try a wget to waf.comodo.com....
 
This was due to the wget version, we need v1.16


Code:
$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.16.tar.gz
$ tar -xvf wget-1.16.tar.gz
$ cd wget-1.16/
$ ./configure --with-ssl=openssl --prefix=/opt/wget
$ make
$ make install
$ mv /usr/bin/wget /usr/bin/bkp_wget
$ ln -s /opt/wget/bin/wget /usr/bin/wget
$ wget -V
