I have the same problem and found it is an openssl problem. Can you try pod update to see if it works OK?

@LightHouse2013 Could you explain more on what the specific openssl problem is it? and how did you solve it? thanks.

• I found that my Copilot could not connect, so I logged out, but could not log in again. The error message was the same as the original poster's, except that Server error: -32603

• Last night, I found that pod install of the new repo failed, and the message was: fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/xx/xxx.git/': LibreSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to github.com:443

• pod update also fail: Failed to connect to GitHub to update the CocoaPods/Specs specs repo - Please check if you are offline, or that GitHub is down

• brew update also fail: fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/LouisBrunner/homebrew-valgrind/': LibreSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to github.com:443

• so, i have to solve those issue, fixed by:brew update-reset

• Magic pill is: brew update-reset

I hope it helps you

@LightHouse2013 thanks for information. Seems a network issue, perhaps related to GFW? Let's wait to see whether other region users encounter the issue.
