    I installed WordPress 3.9 my institution’s server. Tecnicians can’t solve the problem. When I wanted to add new plugins, there appeared a message below. How can I solve this problem.

    Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums. (WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in D:\htdocs\atikhom\wp-admin\includes\plugin-install.php on line 77

    Thank you for your help.

    The relevant part of that message is:

    WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org

    Your site is failing to connect to WordPress.org over SSL which is usually indicative of a server configuration problem. Maybe curl isn’t compiled with SSL or the HTTPS root certificates are missing or invalid.

    Speak to these guys:

    Tecnicians can’t solve the problem

    It’s a server issue.
