php curlesslcacert,Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates.

I was trying to post to a webservice and was getting the 60 error code: Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates. .The webservice I was trying to reach was over https.The solution is very simple.You need to set curl not to verify the ssl peer. You can do this by setting an option.curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

The complete code todo a curl request:

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST,count($fields));

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$string);

curl_setopt ($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER , 1 );

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

$result = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);

?>To check the error codesuse :

//gives the error code http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-error.php

curl_error($ch);

//or the code, usefull to let the script react on different codes

//http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-errno.php

curl_errno($ch);

//Gives the info about your latest request

curl_getinfo($ch); ?>

EDIT

Allways check your SSL version. You can set it like this.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);

?>
