Can you help? Receiving this error message when attempting to connect my WordPress installation with backup vault:

>>>Please ensure your blog is able to perform HTTPS requests to https://wordpress.backup-technology.com. You may need to contact your web host regarding this. The error was: [Error Code http_request_failed] SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate.<<<

I have several WP installations on my VPS add-on domains.

Thank you.
