1) I would suggest to you to install the current stable version. But of course you can install as many as you want :-)

Just to make sure that dokuwiki can run under the current apache- and php-conditions.
2) If you have access to the webserver directly (running on your on computer f.e.), you can also install a fresh wiki and just copy the content (pages and media) of the "old" wiki to the new one. Then just install all required plugins, activate the indexer once and you're done. By this simple method you will lose old versions but perhaps this is not of big importance currently.

Frankly speaking, I am not the best technical expert here in this forum. I am just a user who is maintaining the wiki here in our company :-)

So my knowledge (unix, etc.) is "limited" :-)

Create an index.php file with the following:

<?php
phpinfo();

See if it has current openssl support. It's possible it wasn't updated when you updated your php.

did that, where can I see if it has openssl support?
I see the following lines that could indicate that:

PHP Version 7.0.7
===========
Registered Stream Socket Transports tcp, udp, unix, udg, ssl, sslv3, sslv2, tls, tlsv1.0, tlsv1.1, tlsv1.2

mysqlnd
=====
core SSL supported
extended SSL not supported

openssl
=====
OpenSSL support enabled
OpenSSL Library Version OpenSSL 1.0.2p-fips 14 Aug 2018
OpenSSL Header Version OpenSSL 1.0.1i-fips 6 Aug 2014
Openssl default config /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf

PHP Variables
========
$_SERVER['SSL_VERSION_INTERFACE'] mod_ssl/2.4.23
$_SERVER['SSL_VERSION_LIBRARY'] OpenSSL/1.0.2p-fips

Thanks again

For comparison, here a phpinfo() from me.
Provider/Server: 1&1/IONOS (Germany), shared hosting server (probably well maintained)
I never had problems to update plugins (and for safety tested today).

Nope. phpinfo looks good. Might be missing certificates. See http://php.net/manual/en/openssl.configuration.php

Read this if you don't get any useful answers.

From your file:

Thanks.

From your file:

openssl.cafile => no value => no value
openssl.capath => no value => no value

I've seen that too,
how can I get this changed tho?
I have seen your link above "http://php.net/manual/en/openssl.configuration.php",
but I am a little clueless on what to do with the information given on that page.

I guess my question formed clearer would be: what is my cafile and capath? theoretically php should use the default ca's for my os right?

The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.
[...]
For further details and definitions of the PHP_INI_* modes, see the Where a configuration setting may be set.

Hi,

I can see the following in /etc/php7/apache2/php.ini:

;curl.cainfo =
;openssl.capath=

my question would be: what do I need to fill these with?
do I need to fill these with the CA-certs of my company or do I need to fill these with another CA-cert?

I am not the expierenced person with Certificates, sorry

###EDIT
I changed the parameter in /etc/php7/apache2/php.ini to the path where the certs get stored in my OS (SLES12 SP4)
now phpinfo shows the following:

Directive Local Value Master Value
openssl.capath /usr/share/pki/trust/ /usr/share/pki/trust/

but unfortunately still not able to download from github

###EDIT END

###EDIT2
I noticed that this might not be the correct directory as this parameter needs the hashed certs, so I changed it again but still not able to download
now phpinfo shows the following:

Directive Local Value Master Value
openssl.cafile /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem
openssl.capath /etc/ssl/certs /etc/ssl/certs

###EDIT2 END

Greetings
Dominik

cafile and capath are empty on various servers I use, and everythng works on these servers.

If the problem you're facing really comes from your lack of CA certs, then you must set capath to a directory that has a recent list of such certs. Maybe, you have such a directory. try to find a directory that contains 4042bcee.0 or 6187b673.0 . search under /etc and /usr/local/etc . If that's the case, use that dir for the value of capath.

Some distro have packages just for ca-certificates. I don't know SLES. You may find an rpm file for a newer version of your OS that has an updated list of CA. Check on your distro forum, but it should be safe to install such rpm on your venerable SLES

Otherwise, I add an archive in this post, it contains the certs files from my raspberry pi, that has no problem with SSL. (I prepared it quickly so it is suboptimal). Expand it anywhere, say /etc/myownssl-certs/hashed .The directory does not need any particular protection, these data are public and meant to be world readable. Then, change php.ini capath
openssl.capath="/etc/myownssl-certs/hashed"
restart your webserver/php and try.

Hi,

I downloaded you package and unzipped it in /srv/www/htdocs (not a good location but it doesn't matter for this test)
I gave it 777 permissions to be sure it is readable etc...
then I changed capath in my /etc/php7/apache2/php.ini to look like this

[openssl]
; The location of a Certificate Authority (CA) file on the local filesystem
; to use when verifying the identity of SSL/TLS peers. Most users should
; not specify a value for this directive as PHP will attempt to use the
; OS-managed cert stores in its absence. If specified, this value may still
; be overridden on a per-stream basis via the "cafile" SSL stream context
; option.
;openssl.cafile=/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem

; If openssl.cafile is not specified or if the CA file is not found, the
; directory pointed to by openssl.capath is searched for a suitable
; certificate. This value must be a correctly hashed certificate directory.
; Most users should not specify a value for this directive as PHP will
; attempt to use the OS-managed cert stores in its absence. If specified,
; this value may still be overridden on a per-stream basis via the "capath"
; SSL stream context option.
;openssl.capath=/etc/ssl/certs
openssl.capath=/srv/www/htdocs/hashed

after that I restarted the apache2 and it changed nothing
to be sure I restarted the whole server and also no result

so I guess the certs are not the main issue here?
