    This started since the last update. iTunes Connect shows me this error:

    Can’t read your feed. sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

    Any ideas on how to determine what change in the plugin caused it?

    Did you switch to using SSL? I know that iTunes usually has a problem with podcast feeds being on SSL domains.

    The site has always been SSL, and before the latest update there was no problem with it.

    Well the last update (or any other update) would not have had any effect that has caused this error. In fact, I’ve never seen or heard of an error like this before from anywhere.

    Did you update anything else on your site at the same time? Did you host update anything on their side? Has anything else changed about your hosting setup around the time that you updated the plugin?

    Turns out our dev team switched the SSL cert to Let’s Encrypt and I wasn’t informed. So we’ve switched it to Comodo. Hopefully Apple will see that and update soon.

    Update: Looks like the feed is re-approved. Just waiting on iTunes to catch up. YAY! Good catch on the LE.
