Hi @Pichiota, we require that the server be downloadable via curl or wget. You can try disabling certificate revocation checks with this command:

certutil -setreg CA\CRLFlags +CRLF_REVCHECK_IGNORE_OFFLINE

(Source: The certification authority service does not start and throws the error message "The revocation function was unable to check revocation because the revocation server was offline. 0x80092013 (-2146885613 CRYPT_E_REVOCATION_OFFLINE)" - Uwe Gradenegger)
