Apache Friends Support Forum

Hello,

Has anyone installed CURL with XAMPP for windows? I would appriciate any tips of advice on installing it.


Best regards,
Brett

Just found this post:
http://community.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?t=16

I did what it said with no luck. curl_init() still comes back as undefined function. I cannot read any of the comments as they are not in english.

Hello,

After hours and hours of looking around I figured it out! YAY!

I was editing:
C:\xampp\php\php.ini

Then I looked at my phpinfo to see where the php.ini was loading from. Turns out it is here:
C:\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini

I feel so stupid but I will post incase someone else makes the same mistake.


Best regards,
Brett

but when i change things and nothing changed i looked around. thx for finally posting it though. (EDIT: what the heck was i on? i made no sense as)

mhhh ... any solutions? irgendwelche Lösungen?

I'd the same problem, still: Call to undefined function: curl_init()

- edit php.ini
- copy the dll's to system32

Thanks for supporting!

Hi,

I have it running here...
You problably got the wrong php.ini.
You need the one in /xampp/apache/bin

Works fine here, without installing anything extra.

So long

Hit ... yes, after editing the third php.ini it works lovely.

Thanks-a-lot for the very quick answer!

Thanks...that works....apparantly i was also editing C:\xampp\php\php.ini but i was not checking with phpinfo

thanks für die hilfreichen antworten, weil ohne diese hätte ich nicht weiter gewusst. Da die Anleitung bei cUrl mir nicht besonders weiter geholfen hatte.

Or all php.ini files?

Your method for fixing cURL (i.e. editing the file in the apache/bin folder) worked for me too.

Thank you very much.

I got this error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\xampp\htdocs\webbots\LIB_http.php on line 249

I have enabled curl in xampp\php\php.ini (extension=php_curl.dll at line 582). it works fine at command line, but not in localhost.

check the list, xampp\php\php -m , curl is among the list.

look at xampp\apache\bin\php.ini , there is none curl in the file and all extensions are uncommented. Is it the right file? where should I look and what should I do?

...look at xampp\apache\bin\php.ini , there is none curl in the file and all extensions are uncommented. Is it the right file?

it is the right place (didn't you read this thread?)

;extension=php_curl.dll
just change it to
extension=php_curl.dll
(or add that line if it's missing) and restart apache.

p.s.
it's always clever to ask phpinfo(); for the location of the used php.ini

thank you. it is fixed.

I copied extension=php_curl.dll to xampp\apache\bin\php.ini and restart the windows. it works.

thanks
