pear.php.net certificate still expired for older php version

[WrightTrae]

Description

The following code:

pecl list-all

Resulted in this output:

Updating channel "pear.php.net"
Channel "pear.php.net" is not responding over http://, failed with message: Connection to `ssl://pear.php.net:443' failed:
Trying channel "pear.php.net" over https:// instead
Cannot retrieve channel.xml for channel "pear.php.net" (Connection to `ssl://pear.php.net:443' failed: )
# pecl list-all
WARNING: channel "pecl.php.net" has updated its protocols, use "pecl channel-update pecl.php.net" to update
Connection to `ssl://pecl.php.net:443' failed:

After running:

pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
pecl list-all

Still seeing this output:

# pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
Updating channel "pecl.php.net"
Update of Channel "pecl.php.net" succeeded

# pecl list-all

Versions:
php:5.6
PEAR:1.10.7

I'm not able to replicate this issue in php 7.4. I know that there was a cert update done earlier today #11477, but I'm still having this issue in older versions. Is there anything extra that we have to do for older versions to get the cert update?

PHP Version

5.6

Operating System

No response

This issue was found trying to install any package using pecl.

# pecl install redis
No releases available for package "pecl.php.net/redis"
install failed

See #11478, the issue seems to still persist on older versions.

@iluuu1994 any quick workaround to get pass that for now until that fixed for lower versions ?

[damianwadley]

@ppatelcodal PHP 5.x, 7.x, and 8.0 are no longer supported.

Is everyone using OpenSSL 1.1.0 or later?

Let's consolidate further discussion into #11486
