Trying out the examples for the plug in and they work great against Bluemix, but I’m getting a certificate error when running against a local OpenWhisk install: ``` Failed to deploy function (my_service2-dev-hello) due to error: Error encountered calling OpenWhisk: Error: self signed certificate ``` and I can duplicate it with the wsk CLI just trying a hello: ``` error: Unable to invoke action 'utils/echo': Post https://192.168.33.13/api/v1/namespaces/whisk.system/actions/utils/echo?blocking=true&result=true: x509: cannot validate certificate for 192.168.33.13 because it doesn't contain any IP SANs ``` I’m not finding anything on certs on the OpenWhisk project page anywhere, so I thought I’d try here. Has anybody else run into this? ---

UPDATE I get the same self signed cert error when I vagrant ssh into my OpenWhisk box and install the serverless framework there, even after setting the environment variables as instructed. Unlike when I tried it before, the wsk command line works just fine here, though. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/serverless/original/1X/24091b0c199dd425f64e85254ad73a002f172c99.png) Anybody else run into this? ---

Hi I have got this error too. With the wsk the -i option solves it, but in this case not. I have seen a possibility (rest api) to send over this ignore option in the contractor for the deploy. Did you solved the problem? ---

This has now been resolved with the 0.5 release of the plugin, please upgrade and try again. Use the following configuration to support this. ````auto provider: name: openwhisk ignore_certs: true ``` ```` ---

I finally got a chance to validate this and it’s working great now, thanks so much. I hope we get a chance to meet in Vegas, I get there Tuesday morning and hope to escape the show floor for a few OpenWhisk sessions.
