[Show Quoted Text - 11 lines][Hide Quoted Text] Looks like the cert is for ftp.horde.org and not pear.horde.org. Looks fine here. See attached screenshot. Well idk what's going on then. For my server, it's showing what I described below. I tried on my local machine and it's working fine as you said. My server is located in Amsterdam if that makes a difference? It should not. My guess is that it's something to do with SNI support on windows. It's the only thing I can think of that would cause the wrong virtual server to be served like you are seeing.

Looks like the cert is for ftp.horde.org and not pear.horde.org. Looks fine here. See attached screenshot. I wonder if the version of wget you are using on windows perhaps does not support SNI? I think that may be it, since I tried in ubuntu, and it worked fine, downloaded the same wget I used on the server onto my desktop and it failed the same way. I wonder if something is odd with openssl for windows in my php installation?

Both are fine. But make sure the openssl extension is loaded and your CA certificates are in working order. Ok, got some more information. I apologize for the slowness, working on a windows machine so debugging it is a bit more of a hassle.

Works fine here. Make sure you have a PEAR version that is up-to-date. I am using pear version 1.10.7. Also, I'm using PHP 7.2.2 if that matters.

Currently when trying to install via Pear, I am getting a 'Connection to `ssl://pear.horde.org:443' failed:' message. I have tried visiting https://pear.horde.org/ via a browser on the same server and it loads fine. So not sure what's going on.
