GuzzleHttp\Exception\RequestException when creating a project with symfony 2.8 framework

Question

First of all i created the symfony file through the following cmd :

php -r "file_put_contents('symfony', file_get_contents('https://symfony.com/installer'));"

After that, i performed the following command to create a symfony project :

php symfony new my_project 2.8

The result :

[GuzzleHttp\Exception\RequestException] cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

So, is there a solution to this problem ?

1. Download cacert.pem file from here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
2. Save the file in your PHP installation folder. ( ex D:\wamp\php\cacert.pem).
3. Open your php.ini file and add this line: curl.cainfo="D:\wamp\php\cacert.pem"
4. Restart your Apache server
