I am trying to setup a facebook application for my site (http://www.ipuptime.net) using Add Link To Facebook plugin. I got “cURL communication error 60 SSL certificate problem”.

According to your post, adding this line:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

would fix it. But where do I add that line?

Thanks.
Brian

Thanks! In all my years, this is the first time I’ve needed to access a TSL-protected page and the quick, one-liner fix is adequate for my application but the proper fix was an interesting read for future reference. cURL’s capabilities never cease to amaze me!

U can use

file_get_contents(‘https://example.com’);

instead of cURL.

Enjoy!!

You are a legend. I have spent 6 hours trying to get my code working with the Quickbase API. Your explanation is clear and informative. I also picked up some new ideas along the way. Keep it up. We need more guys like you.

This is one of the most explicit solutions I have ever seen. Thanks a bunch.

Thank you very much for this solution, and thank you to the commenter who mentioned to save (with chain) in Firefox. It worked perfectly for me.
