Description
In tracking down some “Certificates were not trusted: hostname was not match with the server certificate” errors, it occurs to me that things would have been a lot easier if the error message were a bit more verbose. At least for hostname/certname mismatches, I think the error should specify what was expected, and what was received — as in:
Certificates were not trusted: hostname (puppet.foo.com) does not match the server certificate (mitm.evil.com)
Also, something of a different issue, but the text “hostname was not match with” doesn’t actually make sense.
