SSL error using curl/wget - ssl

Question

Recently, I started seeing this problem on my Mac. I am able to download files or visit any https web page from Chrome, but I am not able to do that anymore with either curl or wget.
$ curl --verbose https://www.google.com/
* Trying 2607:f8b0:4007:803::2004...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connected to www.google.com (::1) port 443 (#0)
* ALPN, offering http/1.1
* Cipher selection: ALL:!EXPORT:!EXPORT40:!EXPORT56:!aNULL:!LOW:!RC4:#STRENGTH
* successfully set certificate verify locations:
* CAfile: /Users/tomkwong/anaconda3/ssl/cacert.pem
CApath: none
* TLSv1.2 (OUT), TLS header, Certificate Status (22):
* TLSv1.2 (OUT), TLS handshake, Client hello (1):
* OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to www.google.com:443
* Closing connection 0
curl: (35) OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to www.google.com:443
Here's the wget error:
$ wget --verbose https://www.google.com/
--2018-03-27 23:53:32-- https://www.google.com/
Resolving www.google.com (www.google.com)... 2607:f8b0:4007:803::2004, 172.217.14.68

GnuTLS: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
Unable to establish SSL connection.
More information by using openssl command as requested. I'm unsure what to make sense out of it... looks like errno=54 means "Connection reset by peer".
$ openssl s_client -debug -connect www.google.com:443 -prexit

Answer 1

Rebooting the computer fixes the problem!
I should have thought about that earlier :-)
