  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Curl failed: error setting certificate verify locations

Jawad

New Pleskian
I have opened connection on Windows (Plesk) Server with google server for some services, and trying to verify the peer using
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, true);
but it gave me following error.

Curl failed: error setting certificate verify locations:
CAfile: C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\Additional\PHPSettings\cacert.pem
CApath: none


Then I downloaded the certificate of google server using chrome, and uploaded it manually in the root document directory of my shared plesk windows server. After that I set the path of the certificate like below, and every thing works fine.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CAINFO, getcwd() . "/GoogleCA.crt");

Please guide me if the above way is secure and if not that what is the nicer and secure way to do it. Any suggestions are welcome, keeping in mind that my domain is on shared server and unable to access php.ini file. thankyou in advance.
