Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi all,
I am new to PHP programming and was trying to enable cURL and openSSL on my XAMPP installation on Widows. The cURL is enabled successfully but I didn't get any guidance for enabling openSSL . Plz guide me on this. Thanks in advance.

Go to xampp\apache\bin and open the php.ini. Look for this Line:

Code: Select all

;extension=php_openssl.dll

and remove the leading ;
Now openssl should work.

Hi, I am using xampp for localhost and I have libeay32.ddl and ssleay32.dll both files in php folder. but I did not find extension=php_openssl.dll in php.ini file. but when I write it in php.ini file then after starting apache server it says that php_openssl.dll was not found.
what should do I now?

First check that php_openssl.dll is in the xampp\php\ext folder.

Open http://localhost/xampp/phpinfo.php and see if openssl is included.

@glitzi85,

Thanx!
