Error: CURL failure: Failure when receiving data from the peer...

• Version: electron-builder@20.39.0
• Target: windows “portable”

hey there 👋

i’ve been able to build just fine up until today - as of this morning, i’m hitting:

Failure when receiving data from the peer
authenticode timestamping failed
CURL failure: Failure when receiving data from the peer
authenticode timestamping failed

it occurs when building and signing the windows portable .exe

my config:

  "build": {
    "productName": "Test App",
    "artifactName": "TestApp.${ext}",
    "appId": "io.myapptest.test",
    "files": [

    ],
    "directories": {

      "buildResources": "./build"
    },

fwiw, when i try:

curl http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll

i get curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer but 🤷‍♂️

@stevenrombauts shortly after posting, the issue resolved itself - i chalked it up to an unreliable 3rd party. i just tried my build and it seems the http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll endpoint is down again

Fixed in 21.
