Hello there,

We have online shopping site. When I am going to checkout page i am getting a error like this "error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure(35)"

From the apache error log i can see some attempts to connect to api.paypal.com. Here is the part of my apache error log

• About to connect() to api.paypal.com port 443 (#0)
• Trying 66.211.168.123... * connected
• Connected to api.paypal.com (66.211.168.123) port 443 (#0)
• successfully set certificate verify locations:
• CAfile: none CApath: /etc/ssl/certs
• error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure
• Closing connection #0

When i tried to connect to api.paypal.com using curl i am getting a error like this

curl -iv https://api.paypal.com/ * About to connect() to api.paypal.com port 443 (#0) * Trying 66.211.168.91... connected * Connected to api.paypal.com (66.211.168.91) port 443 (#0) * successfully set certificate verify locations: * CAfile: none CApath: /etc/ssl/certs * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client hello (1): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server hello (2): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Request CERT (13): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server finished (14): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client key exchange (16): * SSLv3, TLS change cipher, Client hello (1): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Finished (20): * SSLv3, TLS alert, Server hello (2): * error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure * Closing connection #0 curl: (35) error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure

Can anyone help me to figure out this.
