wp_safe_remote_get request to an HTTPS site fails #396
Description
Code to reproduce:
wp_safe_remote_get( 'https://alex.kirk.at/' );returns
object(WP_Error)#1235 (3) {
["errors"]=> array(1) {
["http_request_failed"]=> array(1) {
[0]=> string(29) "A valid URL was not provided."
}
}
["error_data"]=> array(0) { }
["additional_data":protected]=> array(0) { }
}
I've identified the reason being that this arg is specified:
"sslcertificates" => "/var/www/html/wp-includes/certificates/ca-bundle.crt",
Maybe that path is not a valid one?
If I directly use
_wp_http_get_object()->request( 'https://alex.kirk.at/' );
Then it works.
