I have an Alfred workflow that needs to pull image files from remote servers. Up until recently, this was working fine until I suddenly started getting errors from imagecreatefromgif():
SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages:
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed
And:
Failed to enable crypto.
It happens with any https URL, so it's not the encryption on the remote server. After a ton of Googling, I ran the script in this answer and the wrappers look good:
openssl: yes
http wrapper: yes
https wrapper: yes
wrappers: array (
0 => 'https',
1 => 'ftps',
2 => 'compress.zlib',
3 => 'compress.bzip2',
4 => 'php',
5 => 'file',
6 => 'glob',
7 => 'data',
8 => 'http',
9 => 'ftp',
10 => 'phar',
11 => 'zip',
)
PHP configuration is kind of outside my wheelhouse, so I'm a bit lost. I have no idea why my mac's PHP install has lost the ability to read files over https.
Anyone have any insights?
Finally figured it out - after searching a searching I stumbled upon this insanely helpful post: https://akrabat.com/ssl-certificate-verification-on-php-5-6/
Followed those steps and everything now works perfectly.
