Your SSL certs are incorrect somehow. Usually you can fix this on ubuntu with the ca-certificates package.

I tried to update ca-certificates but it is already updated.

It is serving invalid certs.

Finally managed to build a docker image and VS Code dev container which seems workable. Hope it could be of some help to those facing similar issue wanting to jumpstart.

Modular seems to have problems with mojo-sdk installs inside modular-cli installs on bare metal computer systems running Ubuntu/GNU Linux OS?

Similar issue here on Macbook Pro M2?

modular: error: http error: failed to reach URL https://packages.modular.com/mojo/1.root.json with cURL error SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK

On the Mojo website they state it is supposed to be a firewall error. It's definitely not. It is entirely not a problem on the user side. They hassle and struggle to understand the concept of installation of a programming language outside one particular environment like anaconda inside one particular container environment - as they call it. They then confluate the situation of cloud installs with local installs, bare metal virtual machines and containers, etc.. and it results in a haze of problem search -- there's a lack of analysis from a higher plane of abstraction .. p.s. given the security issues w/docker daemon/root, it would be a good time to recommend officially from their side to have example installs w/podman (and kubernetes orchestration)

For this issue, if you are from China, a proxy which can bypass GFW could help you. Suppose that a VPN is ready, you can set up the proxy in WSL2 as the following commands: host_ip=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf |grep "nameserver" |cut -f 2 -d " ") export http_proxy=http://$host_ip:your_vpn_port export https_proxy=http://$host_ip:your_vpn_port
