When attempting to import a calender through the following steps
1.Open GCalendars
2. Click to import
3. Click on "Please Login to access the calendar data."
4. Click on "Accept Request" (Google system)

A Fatal error occurs:

" Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Gdata_App_HttpException' with message 'Unable to Connect to ssl://www.google.com:443.

A phpinfo shows that php runs without-openssl.

'./configure' '--prefix=/opt/RZphp5pl' '--with-jpeg-dir=../local' '--with-gd' '--with-png-dir=../local' '--with-freetype-dir=../local' '--with-iconv-dir=../local' '--with-iconv=../local' '--with-mysql=../local' '--with-mysqli=../local/bin/mysql_config' '--with-libxml-dir=../local' '--with-zlib=../local' '--with-ndbm' '--with-mhash=../local' '--with-mcrypt=../local' '--with-pdo-mysql=../local' '--with-sqlite' '--without-openssl' '--disable-rpath' '--enable-hash' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-discard-path' '--enable-sysvshm=yes' '--enable-sysvsem=yes' '--enable-debug=no' '--enable-bcmath=yes' '--enable-safe-mode=yes' '--with-exec-dir=/opt/RZphp5pl/exec' '--with-config-file-path=/opt/RZphp5pl/etc' '--enable-memory-limit' '--enable-pcntl' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-dbase' '--enable-trans-sid'

So my guess is that (IP, routing, Firewalling) access from my hosting provider to google is provided but that a certain stage ssl is used to download information from google. I do not think I can get my hosting provider to change this.

My option seems to try to manually import a calender ? Is this possible ?

I solved this through a work-around:
I first installed a local Joomla installation on my laptop. From there the Gcalendar inport functions works well. Then after the import in Components-->Gcalendar--> I could edit en copy the Gcalendar details manually into the joomla installation at my hosting provider.
Case can be closed !
