 * “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.”

 * where is your site hosted?
 * This can be for a couple of reasons — you host may have a firewall blocking outbound
   connects from your web server or your host may be running an outdated version
   of the openSSL library, so WordPress.org is rejecting your attempted connection.
