Constant error with curl for codeigniter

Question

I just installed the curl library for codeigniter written by Phil Sturgeon. I keep getting this error

"Error: 60: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details:\nerror:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed"

I've checked across the internet and the general solution was to set the following values to FALSE and 0 respectively

CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE;
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0;

i forgot to point out that i have tried this and i'm still getting the same error — ebuoe, Jul 30 '13 at 11:48

you can use
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$curlReturned = curl_exec($ch);
if(!$curlReturned)
{
trigger_error(curl_error($ch));
}

Download the CA that curl dosn't have, and load it with:

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CAINFO, “pathto/cacert.pem”);

or if you don't want the safty of SSL, just turn of it, Boras link describes this more deeply
