Dropbox Snippet - upload files to you synced machines

great idea for a snippet, would be very handy for me i think. i get an error:

Error: Cannot execute request: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed

any clues to why this might be the case?

cheers, 0ad

**bump**

I get the message too. On this webpage it says the next:

http://jaka.kubje.org/projects/dropbox-uploader/

This means that the certificate of the Certification Authority (CA) that Dropbox uses for their SSL certificates is not installed on your system or PHP/cURL is not configured correctly to find it.

If you ARE the system administrator, try installing the CA certificates bundle to a system-wide location. If you use a package management system, this will ensure that they are kept up to date automatically. On Debian Linux for example, you can install the package ca-certificates.

If you are NOT the system administrator, you can download just the needed certificate and point DropboxUploader to it (before calling the upload() method):

$uploader->setCaCertificateFile("path/to/the/certificate.cer");
