any idea of how curl cacert broke my php app? - php

Question

------Answer below--------
I know many post already talk about this but I've tried everything and I think nothing worked.
I use Google API for connection to a website and after to manage Google drive with API and Google library in PHP.
Pretty simple, I've got an issue with curl error 60, so I've checked curl.se website to get the last cacert.pem.
for those who would have my code, in my connection module, if i delete the verify line :
$client = new Client([
'timeout' => 2.0,
'verify' => __DIR__ . '/cacert.pem'
]);
i got this :
cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
If i keep the verify, it work.
And my drive manager module :
$client = new Google_Client([
'timeout' => 2.0,
'verify' => __DIR__ . '/cacert.pem'
]);
$client->useApplicationDefaultCredentials();
$client->addScope(Google_Service_Drive::DRIVE);
$driveManager = new Google_Service_Drive($client);
$client->setSubject('api#test.fr');
// Print the names and IDs for up to 10 files.
$optParams = array(
'fields' => 'nextPageToken, files( name)',
'q' => 'folder',
);
$results = $driveManager->files->listFiles($optParams);"
Of course there is require vendor/autoload and putenv blablabla to open my credentials json file before and the printf foreach $results under..
The thing is, with the same cacert.pem verification, since the last update of cacert.pem on curl.se website (aka the 19/01/2021), this module doesn't work at all with the same error!
I'm a new user with Google API and I don't understand everything.

i've finally hosted my app today, to get it online, and it seems to work.
As my host use ssl by let's encrypt, my app dont use the cacert.pem as scpecified just above in the post, but it use the main certificate of my website, which is my host certificate.
When i've tested it, the error seems appear when the app request to : https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token, and it appear just when i've updated to the last cacert.pem file, so i guess there is an error somewhere that is not made by my hand...
