Scheduled Commands

[connor-devuk]

What were you trying to do?

I have a command which sends some data to my API every 30 minutes.

What happened?

I cannot have scheduled commands to call my API because it errors with a curl ssl error: cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate (see https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html) for https://xxxxxx.xxxx

Now I know you'd think this is a me issue however I think its todo with the way you run the schedule command, as if I run the php artisan schedule:run command manually or the actual artisan command I have for it, it works just fine.

Maybe it's something i have setup weirdly on my end but to my knowledge everything is fine

How to reproduce the bug

Have a scheduled command run every minute (or whatever) and have it call send an API request via Laravels Http library

@connor-devuk are you trying to call a public service or a local test service with a self-signed cert? (e.g. a secure Herd or Valet site)

I've managed to reproduce this only when I'm calling a service that's using a self-signed certificate.

If you're using Laravel's HTTP facade (which is built on top of Guzzle), you can get around this by adding the following to your AppServiceProvider:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http;

public function boot(): void
{
    if ($this->app->environment('local')) {
        Http::globalOptions([
            'verify' => false
        ]);
}

Of course, in practice, you don't want to bypass certificate verification like this for anything important, as you can't trust that the certificate is valid and thus that the TLS connection is safe.

@simonhamp I come across this issue when calling my services API end point hosted on AWS which has an SSL certificate issued by LetsEncrypt
