I/O error when accessing the API

[goneall]

Recently, we started getting I/O errors when accessing the API.

The specific error returned is java.security.cert.CertificateException: No subject alternative DNS name matching api.opensource.org found.

This will impact the SPDX license list's ability to mark the OSI URL's as active.

See the LicenseListPublisher PR 155 comments for more context.

Unclear if anyone responded to your email, notifying stakeholders by CC if this has been missed; we recently did a major web site migration and will check to see if something was broken. Apologies for the extra traffic if this has already been resolved. Deb Bryant

@goneall this issue was due to the DNS switch when we moved the website to a new host. It should be resolved now, API has its own, proper DNS record now. Can you please confirm?

@smaffulli It has improved but not completely fixed. I can now successfully access the API from my local machine, but when I run it in a GitHub action, I'm still getting a failure. I recall we had this issue before - I think there was a firewall blocking the GitHub based access to the API.
