Certificate Expired for go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver

I’m encountering an issue with the Go driver for MongoDB. When trying to fetch the module go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver, the following error occurs:

github.com/jmespath/go-jmespath/internal/testify/assert: go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver@v1.15.1: unrecognized import path "go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver": https fetch: Get "https://go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver?go-get=1": tls: failed to verify certificate: x509: certificate has expired or is not yet valid: current time 2025-01-03T02:38:19Z is after 2025-01-02T23:59:59Z

It seems the TLS certificate for go.mongodb.org expired on 2025-01-02T23:59:59Z, which is causing this issue.

Steps to Reproduce:

Attempt to fetch the module via go get go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver.
Observe the TLS certificate verification failure.

Current Environment:

Go Version: [Add your Go version here, e.g., 1.20.5]
MongoDB Go Driver Version: v1.15.1
Time of Error: 2025-01-03T02:38:19Z

Request:

Could you please renew the certificate for go.mongodb.org? This is currently blocking module installation and updates.

In the meantime, I’ve applied temporary workarounds like GOINSECURE to proceed, but a permanent fix would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Hey @Mohammad_Bhatti, thanks for the report!

I’m unable to reproduce that error, and the TLS cert that I get is valid until Jan 2, 2026. It’s possible the cert has been rotated since you got that error. Can you try again and see if it works now?

Hi @Matt_Dale ,

Thanks for your response.

The issue initially occurred at 3 AM GMT on 3rd January 2025 while I was trying to deploy something. However, I retried at midday, and it worked without any problems. It seems the certificate might have been rotated since then, as you mentioned.

Appreciate your help!
