My LAMP server does not does not have the curl extension.

I installed curl with apt-get but still no extension is found.

How can I add it to the PHP?

But, did you install curl, or did you install php5-curl*?

If not the latter, then install by using:

Code:

sudo apt-get install php5-curl

Then restart apache.

*If you are using another version of php, then you will of course need to change it to php[version]-curl

AGAIN, did you even TRY to look anything up???? Did you install curl, or php5-curl??? Did you ENABLE it by uncommenting/adding "extension=curl.so" in the php.ini file??

Your few recent threads show very little in the way of effort in solving your own problems, but seem to be asking us to look things up for you. Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature.
