I'm sorry, but this is confusing me as I know nothing at all about
"phpMySearch". You say "his search doesn't work" ? What does his search doing
when it connects to your site?

This says that when connecting with SSL, the server claims to have a
certificate for a site that is not the same as the host name curl connects to.

What name is not what name? I don't follow you.

curl uses the CN (common name) field of the server's certificate. It should
match your site's name, which this says it doesn't.

You can only get curl to accept this connection by disabling this check, and
then you won't notice man-in-the-middle "attacks".
