Hey @wehjey I get error cURL error 35: SSL connect error (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)
I've used this package a number of times before, but now, it's kind of stuck on that error

This error is mostly caused as a result of communication glitch between your web browser and the api. Make sure your computer is connected to the internet, or try a different browser. You can also try clearing cache and cookies.

I'm also getting the cURL error 3 in Laravel 5.5, even after clearing cache &cookies and computer is connected. Look into this please.

You might want to check if you have cURL enabled on your machine. My error was automatically resolved when I switched environment. For me, I had to switch from my cloud environment to localhost, and it worked right away.

The same error on 5.6, running locally on Laragon

[abiodunsulaiman694]

Run:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Unicodeveloper\Paystack\PaystackServiceProvider"
And confirm that the file paystack.php is in your config directory

@abiodunsulaiman694 I have already published it and set my environment variables as well before now.

Its August 2019. I got this error..
cURL error 3: malformed (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)
I'm using laravel 5.8.
Has anyone solved this issue?

@reigningkingforever check if paystack.php file is active and the code below is there.

`<?php

return [

/**
 * Public Key From Paystack Dashboard
 *
 */
'publicKey' => getenv('PAYSTACK_PUBLIC_KEY'),

/**
 * Secret Key From Paystack Dashboard
 *
 */
'secretKey' => getenv('PAYSTACK_SECRET_KEY'),

/**
 * Paystack Payment URL
 *
 */
'paymentUrl' => getenv('PAYSTACK_PAYMENT_URL'),

/**
 * Optional email address of the merchant
 *
 */
'merchantEmail' => getenv('MERCHANT_EMAIL'),

];`

I found that medium post helpful cause it fixed it

[daweng1]

The php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Unicodeveloper\Paystack\PaystackServiceProvider" created a paystack.php file in unicodeveloper/laravel-paystack/resources/config instead of config directory. I just copied it from there and pasted it in the config directory.
