Looks to me like you’re missing the CA cert bundle. Giving this a read might help:
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html
the link above is over my head & I am getting a similar error, any suggestion on ligher reading? 🙂
Here’s what I’m Getting:
error setting certificate verify locations: CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CApath: none
Thanks
I don’t know where else to direct you, I’m not very familiar with the problem, it’s not a problem with the Backup plugin.
I could add an option in the plugin to bypass SSL certificate verification, which would make it work for you guys but that’s a really bad idea.
Maybe someone from these forums with more authority on the matter can shed some more light on the issue.
I’m running into the exact same problem. I didn’t have the problem using an older version of Backup, so I’m going to revert back unfortunately. I don’t know what it is, but I think some expert is going to have to look into it. Is there any chance there’s a problem with Windows hosting? I’m on Windows hosting, so might have to do something with it?
I believe i found a solution to the problem as it now works for me on a win2008r2 box.
1. download the pem file from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html and rename it to curl-ca-bundle.crt
2. copy it to the c:/windows directory
3. add the following line of code to class-http.php in your wwwroot/wp-includes directory, where the other group of curl_setopt calls are made. around line 1080 on my version of the file.
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_CAINFO, ‘c:/windows/curl-ca-bundle.crt’);
you should be right to go.
That seems to be a working solution but I don’t recommend modifying WordPress core files.
There should be a folder where you can put the bundle file without the need to add the curl option in PHP, a folder where curl expects that file to be in.
If you have PHP >= 5.3.7 you can add this line in your php.ini file in the [PHP] section:
curl.cainfo = c:\path\to\curl-ca-bundle.crt
Sorry hel.in I cant seem to find another way to contact just wanting to find out what happened with the wordpress (backup) plugin ?
