Hi,
I contacted the hosting company. They are saying this is NOT a server issue.
I briefed them on everything that you’ve done. Here’s what they said:
“It may be that a newer curl version is required on your DV.
You could try updating the curl page manually, perhaps running yum update curl. Otherwise I’d have you check with your provider what curl version they expect, or support. ”
I tried running this command…server response was “No packages marked for update”
Their response:
“In that case it indicates that the issue lies not with the server, but with the encryption method specified by curl itself when making those connections.
Information on specifying that here:
https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_SSLVERSION.html ”
I asked:
So, where exactly is that defined/specified? On the server (e.g. in a config file) or in the plugin code?
Their reply:
“It would be in the PHP code, see the test he specified doesn’t specify what version of TLS to use.”
“Your server definitively supports TLS 1.2, but if the code isn’t using that for the connection, then it will appear as a TLS 1 connection.
This stackoverflow article explains nicely:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30145089/tls-1-2-not-working-in-curl
“That article has a suggestion of upgrading certain packages at the end of the article, perhaps that would help. That being said, we don’t directly assist with package management in support, so I’d suggest working with the plugin / service for information on what versions of openssl, curl, etc they need.”
