SSL Cerificate Error

Could you provide a link so I can check it out please?

Thanks!

It’s the calendar on the right hand side of this page: https://www.capecommunityservices.org/poolfitness/richard-pool/

When not logged in as an admin it just shows up as grayed out and there being no events. The error message appears above the calendar when logged in though.

Here is the calendar ID:
capeelizabethschools.org_f5ck1puas9sfeqkv70gcap746s@group.calendar.google.com

This issue is still happening and follows what Andy wrote above. When you are not logged in the calendars are grayed out. When logged in, you get the error:

SSL: CA certificate set, but certificate verification is disabled Please ensure your calendar ID is correct.
We did not have a Google API so I just set it up and did not change anything.

I’m getting the same error message.

Followed all instructions in the plugin, and tried setting the calendar to public to test it wasn’t that but no luck.

API is set up and Calendar API is turned on.

Please could you take a look?

Dave, is your Google account part of a google domain or is it just a @gmail.com account? Just seeing if this is part of the problem or not.

Hi Jason,

The calendar and the API access are set up under an @gmail account.

We’ve had to revert to just embedding the calendar using an iframe. Looks awful but works :-/

As a temporary fix, setting 'sslverify' => true in the wp_remote_get() function on line 152 of “class-gce-feed.php” seems to fix the issue.

SSL verification was set to false, but an SSL certificate was provided, so it was returning the error:

SSL: CA certificate set, but certificate verification is disabled

I’m guessing this is due to the Google API feed url being “https://www.googleapis.com/…”

Hope this helps!

After some further investigation, I think the problem may be server setup, rather than the plugin.

This Stack Overflow question may help you.

I was getting the error locally, but there is no error on our staging server.

@dave,

Yeah I think we leave it that way mostly because of this – from the WP Site:

If you are requesting HTTPS and know that the site is self-signed or is invalided and are reasonably sure that it can be trusted, then set to false.

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/HTTP_API#Other_Arguments

Since it is a direct call to Google we assume it is generally safe and don’t require the check.

I am glad you were able to get it working, and it probably does just boil down to server configurations like stated in the SO response.

@jasonbrookeslund, @andyreifman,

Did the Stack Overflow link help out in your case at all?

Haven’t quite figured it out but it might be server related in a different way. When I did the sslverify, I got the following message when looking at the calendar “SSLRead() return error -9806”. When I googled the error, I found this posting and I’m wondering if I’m in the same boat with my PHP since I’m running this on 10.10 as well. I might have to install a new version of PHP.

Also, I had tried setting the SSLVerifyClient to none but had no success with it.

Finally! That post was correct. The php built into Yosemite has SecureTransport, not openssl and that was causing the error -9806 that I was seeing. Followed the instructions (after miserably failing at getting macports to work) and the server updated the php version to an openssl version.

@jasonbrookeslund,

So it sounds like this is all working now for you?

Yes. Just wanted to post for any future person with this problem.

Awesome! Yes thank you for posting that additional info for anyone else. I will probably refer anyone else with the problem to this post it is so helpful.

Thanks for updating me, I am going to go ahead and mark this as resolved now.

Please open a new thread if you need help with anything else.

Thanks!
