PHP 7.0 cURL not working - WAMP on Windows 10 64 bit

Question

cURL is not working when I run curl on my WAMP server. Anyone know how to activate this for php 7.0+?

I have tried to uncomment extension=php_curl.dll in php.ini

Here is my error message:

cURL Error #:SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

...did you "Google" that error? Many hits found. @EdvardÅkerberg — Funk Forty Niner, Nov 03 '16 at 12:39
@Fred-ii- Yes i have restarted the server, it's something else that is wrong. I ran the same code on my real web server and the curls works like it is supposed to. It's only when I run it from my WAMP server. — Edvard Åkerberg, Nov 03 '16 at 12:40
@Fred-ii- Yes i have googled the errror, there are solutions for PHP version 5.4 and lower but not for PHP 7 — Edvard Åkerberg, Nov 03 '16 at 12:41
I see. I had a similar problem before but on 5.6 and on Windows 7, so am unsure how to help you out any further, without having to keep on Googling. Wait for others who may know something I don't. @EdvardÅkerberg — Funk Forty Niner, Nov 03 '16 at 12:42
You have ca-bundle.crt in your installation ? Is it correctly configured in your php.ini file, on curl.cainfo and openssl.cafile options ? — hlscalon, Nov 03 '16 at 12:57
@old_mountain I can't find any file in my installation thats called ca-bundle.crt. Is there a guide on how to install it? — Edvard Åkerberg, Nov 03 '16 at 12:59

Download ca-bundle.crt from https://github.com/bagder/ca-bundle/blob/e9175fec5d0c4d42de24ed6d84a06d504d5e5a09/ca-bundle.crt
Put the file in c:\wamp64\
Change php.ini to the following

curl.cainfo="C:/wamp64/ca-bundle.crt"

openssl.cafile="C:/wamp64/ca-bundle.crt"

This worked for me.

Note : You have to restart server after doing above process.
