I am using PHPMailer class to send an email from my website, locally its work good but on my online server I got an error:

2018-05-28 12:03:40 Connection failed. Error #2: stream_socket_client(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages:error:14090086:SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed [/home/beesystems/public_html/specs/vendor/phpmailer/phpmailer/src/SMTP.php line 325]

SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting

code:

            $mail = new PHPMailer();
            $mail->IsSMTP();
            $mail->SMTPAuth = true;
            $mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
            $mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
            $mail->Port = 465;

           $mail->Username = \Yii::$app->params['mailer-account'];
           $mail->Password = \Yii::$app->params['mailer-password'];

This is the important part:

SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed

This is covered extensively in the troubleshooting guide the error message links to, and has been answered many times on here. Switching SMTPSecure to tls on port 587 won't help. It's most likely that your server is running an old version of PHP, or has an outdated CA certificates bundle.
