All app updates and Installs fail with "500" Internal Server Issue: Could not fetch sources files, is the URL correct?

Hey everyone,
yunohost has been great for the last months. Sadly, It has been redered useless for the past few days and I don’t know what to do anymore :frowning:

The only solved, related issue I found had problems with the french locale, my locale is en_US.UTF-8, so that does not seem to be the problem.

My YunoHost server

Hardware: VPS bought online
YunoHost version: x.x.x
I have access to my server : Through SSH & through the webadmin
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : yes
If yes, please explain: I did Change cipher compatibility configuration and use a seperate Redis database as a cache for matomo.

Description of my issue

I’m trying to update and install apps, but I always get an “500” Internal Server Error. The webadmin just spills this error for every app:

admin@host:~$ sudo yunohost app install castopod --debug

There is no log to share, or at least I did not find one in the webadmin under “tools/logs”

Best regards

okay nevermind, while looking though some more topics this one solved my issue. → sudo apt-get install libcurl3-gnutls=7.64.0-4+deb10u2

leaving it open for now, to see if I encounter any other errors.

so to be clear, this is a temporary workaround, not a fix.
stuff works for a while, then the error returns.

Uhokay, can you try to run cd /tmp/ && git clone https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/hextris_ynh ? (I’m just taking hextris as a random example)

Same thing with cd /tmp/ && curl https://app.yunohost.org/default/v2/apps.json (here also, taking apps.json as a random file to download)
