Issues establising SSL connection after a wget command

[Eric Ntonfo <eric_njedjou@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am running an Ubuntu 12.04 TLS server and can't use wget to download software packages

The command

wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.63.0.tar.bz2

fails with the following error

--2019-06-17 22:10:11--  http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.63.0.tar.bz2

OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version

Unable to establish SSL connection.

I am unable to fix this issue. I have upgraded from openssl 1.0.1 on my Ubuntu box to openssl 1.0.2 having heard that this latest version fix the bug

But still having it.

Can someone help please?

Regards

Eric
