I have received the message “Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration.” many times when using XAMPP and WAMP servers over the years. I never had issues with the sites on hosted servers. Using WAMP, checking the PHP and Apache cURL settings and increasing execution times and addition of code to the wp-config.sys files had reduced the occurrences, so never a real problem. I recently reinstalled WAMP in order to obtain updates and be able to use PHP 7.2 and 7.3. Since the update, the occurrences of this warning had increased and recently became a serious problem. With debug ‘display’ set to true the pages filed with warnings and finally I could not get updates. The problem occurred on several sites and I had a feeling that changes in WP core files was the cause, possibly with provisions for parallel updates for 4.9.x and 5.1.x, although hosted sites had no similar issues. I prefer to fix problems with my own code, except when it means changing core files. I spent many hours on the issue and went through all the checks and tweaks to no avail. I had not expected to find a plugin, but came across SaFly Curl Patch and no more warnings! A truly remarkable plugin! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/067cc9b0d66d19d10aab27cf0b502fa285069f16759c5240a132e2a05cf9373e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Wow, wasted hours looking for a solution](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wow-wasted-hours-looking-for-a-solution/)󠁿 [mikehike123](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mikehike123/) Pebrero 13, 2019 Finally stumbled on this.
