    Two days now I get this warning in my updates. I contacted my host and developer of the theme and they say the problem is not from them. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Disable all your plugins and see if it still happens. It sounds very much like an issue with your host connecting to WP, though.

    Thanks for the reply Ipstenu.

    The problem is the same with the plugins deactivated. I contacted the host and they assured me that nothing has been changed the last 30 days. So it is not their problem. It was working fine 2 days ago.

    I was searching everywhere for an answer to this too…one that wasnt the standard ‘its a server problem’ because it wasnt – totally fresh version of WordPress, totally new database and even new domain so couldnt be that.

    Here’s what fixed mine:

    in /www/wp-admin/includes/plugin-install.php on line 65 – remove the ‘s’ from https so the below should read:

    if ( false === $res ) {
		$url = $http_url = 'http://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.0/';
		if ( $ssl = wp_http_supports( array( 'ssl' ) ) )
			$url = set_url_scheme( $url, 'http' );
