Install Nix rootless on rhel

I’ve seen this error recently while trying to make nix work on fedora through a MITM proxy. In multi-user though so I’m not sure it’ll help but some of the stuff I tried which could lead you to the cause:

  • NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE or just SSL_CERT_FILE
  • CURL_CA_BUNDLE
  • double checking the proxy env variables (HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY)
  • adding --verbose to the command line
  • trying curl instead of wget to check that the network setup is working, can give different result
