Answer 2

https://docs.meteor.com/expired-certificate.html:

If you are getting errors like Connection error (certificate has expired) when running Meteor commands it means that you are running a version of Meteor older than v1.9.

A workaround, for now, is to run all the meteor commands with the following environment variable NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED, for example ...

I suspect you didn't set the env var correctly. Either export it or set it right on the command line:

NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 meteor
