Please add the error in #3 to the issue summary. Also, please describe your environment: platform, PHP version, etc, in the issue summary.

Are you on 8.0.x HEAD? It could be this change #1538118: Update status does not verify the identity or authenticity of the release history URL

Are you behind a proxy server at your site?

WAMP may have outdated curl certificates.

Sounds like https://www.drupal.org/node/2481341

The answer is clear. Reopen this if the community documentation page does not help.

Still facing the same issue even after following the procedure mentioned

-> Download latest cacert.pem (As txt file) from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
-> Add curl.cainfo = [enter your path]\cacert.pem to your php.ini
-> Restart Apache service

I am using Drupal 8.1.0 on XAMP but the below error keeps on coming

GuzzleHttp\Exception\RequestException: cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html) in GuzzleHttp\Handler\CurlFactory::createRejection() (line 187 of D:\xampp\htdocs\services_display\vendor\guzzlehttp\guzzle\src\Handler\CurlFactory.php).

This is an XAMPP problem. Seek help in that project's issue queue.

Thanks for a quick response. Will try XAMPP forums :)

Put your self signed cert into the allowed list

I am running UwAmp 3.1.0 with PHP 5.6.18 and MySQL 5.7.11 on Win 10. I was getting "Failed to fetch file due to error "cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)" error message when I try to install a module in Drupal 8.1.8.

In my case I had to add a "certs" folder to C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\conf\ then download the cacert.pem to that certs folder. I also had to add "curl.cainfo = C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\conf\certs\cacert.pem" to my php.ini file using the UwAmp GUI.

For the benefit of those of us who are newbies please explain what's happening here and why the solution fixed the problem. Please also explain why there is not some kind of fix to Drupal 8 to prevent this problem from happening.

Thanks!

Indeed this is documented.

The document I referenced in #20 should perhaps be generalized and the suggestions from #21 added to it.

I was experiencing the same issue running on Windows 10, Apache 2.4, Php 7.1, Drupal 8.2.

Following the solution at https://www.drupal.org/node/2481341 (which #16 outlined) worked for me.

• Download latest cacert.pem from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html into my php folder (c:\php in my case)
• Under the Curl section of my php.ini file, I added curl.cainfo = c:\php\cacert.pem.
• Restarted Apache service.

What should we do if this solution (#25) doesn't work ?

Replace google.com to recaptcha.net. Here is patch file. Try this it might work

if this error is happening locally and the recommended solution isn't working you can ignore ssl certification errors by putting this line into the settings.local.php

$settings['http_client_config']['verify'] = FALSE;
