SSL certificate problem diffrent behavior

Hi all,
I am using libcurl to download files from a https server using self
signed cert file.
The small code that I wrote is working on my ubuntu PC but not working
in the target plateform.
I tested also with command line curl and I had the same certification issue.
The two plateforms are quite diffrent but I don't know the root cause
of this problem.

following the used command in both platforms and the output that I
have got + the result of curl -V command in both platforms :

curl -v --digest --noproxy 10.1.1.93 --user test:test --cacert
server.crt https://10.1.1.93/test.txt

result in PC:

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
 of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). If the default
 bundle file isn't adequate, you can specify an alternate file
 using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
 the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
 problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
 not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
 the -k (or --insecure) option.

Could you please help me to find what is going wrong ?
Thank you!
