Cannot register Go Runner because of x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
If you are using a letsencrypt certificate the bug is trigged by curl.
curl https://gitlab.example.com:9999/ci/api/v1/runners/register.json
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
To fix this, add letsencrypt root certificates to system
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrgrootx1.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/isrgrootx1.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/letsencryptauthorityx1.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptauthorityx1.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/letsencryptauthorityx2.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptauthorityx2.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-x1-cross-signed.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptx1.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-x2-cross-signed.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptx2.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-x3-cross-signed.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptx3.crt
sudo curl https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-x4-cross-signed.pem.txt -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/letsencryptx4.crt
sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates
