SSL error while running through Shopify CLI

Topic summary

  • Login via Shopify CLI succeeds, but running the local development environment fails with an SSL-related error (a screenshot was attached).

  • Another participant asked if the issue auto-resolved after ~24 hours, noting they saw delayed order processing in their logs during the incident. The original poster reported no auto-resolution or response.

  • Most recent update: Running “shopify theme dev -s ” now fails with the message “command theme:serve:. not found” and an AbortSilentError. The stack trace references @shopify/cli-kit (ruby.js) and yoga-layout-prebuilt, suggesting a CLI/internal dependency error rather than just SSL.

  • Context: Shopify CLI is the command-line tool for theme development; “theme dev/serve” starts a local dev server. SSL errors typically relate to certificate/TLS issues.

  • Outcomes/decisions: No fix, workaround, or official guidance was provided in the thread. No configuration changes or steps were confirmed to help.

  • Status: Unresolved/ongoing. Open questions include whether the problem is environmental (CLI/plugins/Node/Ruby dependencies) vs. a transient service issue, and whether others can reliably reproduce or confirm auto-resolution.

I am able to login using Shopify CLI however unable to run it locally.

Getting SSL error. PFA screenshot.

Please let me know if anyone has solution.

Thanks.

Did you find this auto-resolved about 24 hours later? Discovered this in our logs and found a number of orders that had delayed processing because of it.

NO I did not get any response or resolve.
