Description

Hi everyone,

We've recently migrated our WordPress backend (used as a headless CMS) from InMotion Hosting to WP Engine. Our frontend is built with Gatsby. After updating the API endpoint to point to the new WP Engine server, we're now encountering the following error during build or development:

RequestError: 382F0000:error:0A000119:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:decryption failed or bad record
mac:c:\ws\deps\openssl\openssl\ssl\record\ssl3_record.c:623:

Reproduction Link

i cant upload the link , because this is for company

Steps to Reproduce

1.Set up a Gatsby site using gatsby-source-wordpress to pull data from a WordPress backend.
2.Initially connect to a WordPress site hosted on InMotion – build and development work as expected.
3.Migrate the WordPress site to WP Engine.
4.Update the API endpoint in the Gatsby config to point to the new non-SSL (http://) WP Engine WordPress site.
5.Run gatsby develop or gatsby build.
6.Observe the build process fail with the following SSL error:
RequestError: 382F0000:error:0A000119:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:decryption failed or bad record
mac:c:\ws\deps\openssl\openssl\ssl\record\ssl3_record.c:623:

Expected Result

Gatsby should successfully fetch data from the new WordPress backend hosted on WP Engine (using the configured non-SSL http:// API endpoint) and complete the build process without any errors.

Actual Result

When running gatsby develop or gatsby build, the process fails with the following SSL error, even though the API endpoint is set to http:// (non-SSL):

RequestError: 382F0000:error:0A000119:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:decryption failed or bad record
mac:c:\ws\deps\openssl\openssl\ssl\record\ssl3_record.c:623:
