SSL Support for PHP Curl

sw0rdz · 03-14-2010, 01:26 AM

I have both PHP and Apache installed. I need to get SSL support for Curl. I'm hoping I can do this with out having to download php/apache and re-configuring it via that.

what distro are you running ? most distros have curl configured with ssl support just install the package.

Centos, which is fedora. I couldn't find a package for this, but one still could exists.

on centos, curl is build in just run phpinfo(); you will see curl with ssl (openssl) support.

Trying to install WHMCS, I get this error "» CURL .......... You must have CURL installed with SSL Support for WHMCS to function correctly".

php info print:

That is because you build your own php instead of installing from yum you will need to rebuild with curl support

Can you throw a bone on how to do this? Is it possible to do so w/o re-downloading php.

you have to use the --with-curl option when you configure your php build, by the way why are you using a source build instead of using packages ?

I did install php via the package way (yum). Since I don't have the build directory, I'm wondering how to rebuild php.

The php that is displaying that info page was clearly built from source. look at the configure lines.

Just download the same version of php and copy the configure options from the phpinfo page, add the curl option and build.

I re-downloaded php and I just need the entry to have curl support ssl.
