postTweet simply doesn't work on my dev laptop

[jonnybarnes]

I have no idea why.

try {
    $response = Twitter::postTweet($tweet_opts);
    var_dump($response);
} catch(Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
}

simply results in boolean false being displayed.

I'm stuck even trying to debug this.

OK, getting somewhere, a var_dump($response) inside your query method reveals the following error:

'error' => string 'SSL: certificate verification failed (result: 5)'

You can probably close this issue, I'm pretty sure its a problem with cURL itself, and not your code.
