Can't install composer due to certificate issues

问题

So I have tried all morning to install composer so I can start to use the laravel framework.

I am running windows server r2 standard 64bit with XAMPP on php 7.0

When running the Composer-Setup.exe I get the following message..

The "https://getcomposer.org/versions" file could not be downloaded: SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed Failed to enable crypto failed to open stream: operation failed

I have scoured the net, and in most cases, the issue that I seem to be having is specifying a cacert.pem file..

So I followed instructions to download the cert from - https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem

I simply made a .txt file, copied the content into it from the above link and renamed the file so it was cacert.pem file.

Then specified the .pem file inside the php.ini

openssl.cafile=C:\cacert.pem

Restard apache then re ran the setup.

After running it again, I get exactly the same error about ssl operation failed with code 1.

Hopefully someone can see what I am doing wrong here?

回答1:

Are you running the latest version of Composer?
Try to turn off HTTP proxy (if you have one).
Read a ticket with the same problem to get more inspiration, if 1 & 2 did not help.
