When I try to connect to any server (e.g. google.com) using curl (or libcurl) I get the error message:
curl: (35) error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number
Verbose output:
$ curl www.google.com --verbose
* Rebuilt URL to: www.google.com/

curl: (35) error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number'
For some reason curl seems to use TLSv1.3 even if I force it to use TLSv1.2 with the command –tlsv1.2 (it will still print TLSv1.3 (OUT), …”
I am using the newest version of both Curl and OpenSSL :
$ curl -V
curl 7.61.0-DEV (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.61.0-DEV OpenSSL/1.1.1 zlib/1.2.8
Release-Date: [unreleased]
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp
Features: AsynchDNS IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP UnixSockets HTTPS-proxy
I think this is a problem related to my installation of the programms.
Can somebody explain to me what this error message means?
