Answer 1

Ok I have found a solution. The problem is that the site uses SSLv3. And I know that there are some problems in the openssl module. Some time ago I had the same problem with the SSL versions.

When you set the SSL Version with curl to v3 then it works.

Edit:

Another problem under Windows is that you don't have access to the certificates. So put the root certificates directly to curl.

http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html

here you can download the root certificates.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CAINFO, __DIR__ . "/certs/cacert.pem");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, true);

Then you can use the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER option with true otherwise you get an error.
