When i run the command:

sudo yum install perl-bioperl

I get the error

 [Errno 14] Peer cert cannot be verified or peer cert invalid.

My system details are:

Linux localhost.localdomain 3.11.10-100.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 2 20:28:38 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Please help me figuring out this problem.

The most likely cause for this problem is that the date on your computer is wrong -- outside of the expiration period for the server's security certificate. It could be something else (data corruption, an attempted hijack, or Fedora's server legitimately having a problem), but time error is the most likely and where you should start to debug.

Did you try this hint https://access.redhat.com/solutions/53905

Issue

Cannot install packages because of error: [Errno 14] Peer cert cannot be verified or peer cert invalid

or

Error: failed to retrieve repodata/-primary.xml.gz from rhel-x86_64-server-6

error was [Errno 14] Peer cert cannot be verified or peer cert invalid

In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 an error is seen when trying to change the mirrorlist= URL from http to https in a yum .repo file, but this works on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
