<p>I really want to get the google Calendar Api up an running.  I found a <a href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/x-googleclndr/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">great article</a> about how to get started. I downloaded the Zend GData classes.  I have php 5 running on my dev box and all the exetensions should be loading.</p>

<p>I cant get openssl running and recieve the following error when I try to run any of the example page which should connect to my Google Calendar.</p>

<pre><code>Uncaught exception 'Zend_Gdata_App_HttpException' with message 'Unable to Connect to ssl://www.google.com:443. Error #24063472: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?'
</code></pre>

<p>I have looked in many places to try to get OpenSSL running on my machine and installed.  </p>

<p>Does anyone know of a simple failsafe tutorial to get this combination up and running?</p>
