Runtime Configuration

The behaviour of these functions is affected by
settings in php.ini.

For further details and definitions of the PHP_INI_* modes, see the
Where a
configuration setting may be set.

Here’s a short explanation of the configuration
directives.

openssl.cafile string

Location of Certificate Authority file on local
filesystem which should be used with the verify_peer context option
to authenticate the identity of the remote peer.

openssl.capath string

If cafile is not specified or if the certificate is
not found there, the directory pointed to by capath is searched for
a suitable certificate. capath must be a correctly hashed
certificate directory.
