Error in installing PHP Symfony framework.

Question

I am trying to install Symfony on Windows 8. I am using Appserv as my local server.

Step 1: I opened the the folder C:\AppServ\www. Then I opened the command line (cmd) and entered the following command:

php -r "file_put_contents('symfony', file_get_contents('https://symfony.com/installer'));"

This installed a symfony file in the www folder.

Step 2: I then entered the following command but it gave me the error.

php symfony new symfony_project

This is the screenshot of the error.

I don't know what to do. Please Help.

Instead of posting a link, you should post a full response. These are the instructions:

Download this file https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem and save it somewhere in your computer. for example, c:\AppServ\php\cacert.pem
Open your php.ini config file.
Look for the following config and uncomment it if it exists or add it if it does not:

[curl]
curl.cainfo="c:\AppServ\php\cacert.pem"
