To insert social login integration on my application, I'm adding Socialite library to my Laravel app. I have a facebook app registered and 2 methods as in laravel documentation: http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/authentication#social-authentication

public function redirectToProvider()
{
    return Socialize::with('github')->redirect();
}

public function handleProviderCallback()
{
    $user = Socialize::with('github')->user();
    dd($user);
}

The request gets submitted to and returned from Facebook sucessfully, but once I reach the callback URL: localhost:8000/social (where the handleProviderCallback()) is called, I get the following error:

RequestException in RequestException.php line 51: cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

I have tried turning off my firewall, but had no success.. getting really frustrated, can someone help me out?

and set path in php.ini

[cURL] 
curl.cainfo=C:\php\cacert.pem

It works after server restart.
