Today I am making some changes the an old Laravel application that I have not updated in years. The applications still is running on Laravel 9. When I started the application it showed a bunch of depecrated errors.
The solution was to update composer. I executed the computer update command and thats when my problem started. I got this error and I didn't know what to do because in the past the curl had worked. The error message said:
https://repo.packagist.org could not be fully loaded (curl error 60 while downloading https://repo.packagist.org/packages.json: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK), package information was loaded from the local cache and may be out of date
In CurlDownloader.php line 390:
curl error 60 while downloading https://repo.packagist.org/p2/spatie/ignition-contracts.json: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK

1. I opened public/index.php in my Laravel project and added the phpinfo() function to find the php.ini file.
the Configuration File (php.ini) Path had no value, but the Loaded Configuration File had a value of C:\Users\15t\.config\herd-lite\bin\php.ini
The problem here was that I had not configured the herd server for curl, I also run a XAMPP on my windows, I needed to start wamp which contained the old php.ini configurations. I also had to change the PATH to php in windows.
Here is some helpful information
