Code signing failed on Mac and Windows builds (Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:443)

Hi guys, I had some successful builds using the same electron build version and suddenly I got an error today when trying to build again. The previous build was 28 days ago. I did a build for Linux, Windows, and MacOS, and I got an error only on MacOS and Windows (due to the signing).

The full stacktrace can be found here (MacOS) https://travis-ci.org/CCI-Tools/cate-installer/jobs/404454285 and here (Windows) https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ccitools/cate-installer/build/164

And here is the source code of the project: https://github.com/CCI-Tools/cate-desktop

I have spent multiple hours to debug this issue without any significant returns. I thought it was an issue of Travis or AppVeyor not allowing a specific connection, but I can actually reproduce it on my local Mac and Windows machines. Could you point me to a more obvious direction on where to look to solve this issue?

Cheers,
Hans

turned out that it was an issue of reaching the certificate file via the provided URL stored in CSC_LINK variable. The reason as to why the downloadable link was suddenly unreachable is still unknown, but the solution was to change the format of the URL.

A suggestion: it would be nice to show a more informative error message when this happens (eg. why it needs to connect to 127.0.0.1:443, what is the request, etc.). This will save hours spent on debugging this kind of error.

It is more clear in a latest version of electron-builder.

I don't know what it's for
