 * Hi
    I get the following fault message at add plugins: ‘An unexpected error occurred.
   Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration.’
 * WordPress.org is OK (it works in a local test environmemt), it must be a fault
   of my site.
    Any suggestions?

 * I have the exact same issue:
    Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something
   may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue
   to have problems, please try the support forums. (WordPress could not establish
   a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.)
