I'm trying to use Curl. The problem is that in some pages it works normally, in others I have the following error:

SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

Here is my code:

<?php
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.youtube.com/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
echo curl_error($ch);
curl_close($ch);
?>

I'm a beginner in php and I also do not understand much about this Curl tool, but what would be the solution to this error?

I'm using Xampp.

Your problem is due to the lack of some parameters needed when performing requests to https page. The correct would be:

<?php
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.youtube.com/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
echo curl_error($ch);
curl_close($ch);
?>

I have a class to handle curl, you can see it at this link
