Question

How do I enable cURL in PHP?

​​

Answer 1

Check the php version, If you installed php 7.0 version

sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl
sudo service apache2 restart

If you installed php 5.6 version

sudo apt-get install php5-curl
sudo service apache2 restart

Answer 2

I found the file located at:

C:\xampp\php\php.ini

Uncommented:

;extension=php_curl.dll

Answer 3

For windows OS users (It worked for me) in XAMPP.

step 1: Go to C:\xampp\php\php.ini

edit this file php.ini

find curl- you will see a line ;extension=php_curl.dll.

remove semicolon (;)extension=php_curl.dll. so this line looks like

;extension=php_curl.dll

to

extension=php_curl.dll

step 2: copy ssleay32.dll, libeay32.dll from php folder. paste it in C:\Windows\System32\

step 3: Restart the system . Curl will run successfully.

Answer 4

sudo yast2

after installation you need to restart apache server

service apache2 restart
