I'm trying to launch a php script which needs curl. I'm using Easyphp for the first time. I tried to uncomment the line extension=php_curl.dllin php.ini. But it still doesn't work. Even after a restart.

What should I do?

Thanks

  • Well, you have to check if the extension gets loaded. First check the http servers error log file after restarting it, then the output of the legendary script ``... – arkascha May 21 '16 at 07:12
  • Thanks for your answer. Here is the server error log : `PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\EasyPHP-Devserver-16.1\\eds-binaries\\php\\php704vc14x86x160521084858\\ext\\php_curl.dll' - Le module sp\xef\xbf\xbdcifi\xef\xbf\xbd est introuvable.\r\n in Unknown on line 0` – Ty Yt May 21 '16 at 07:15
  • Yes, I just checked and the file is well placed. – Ty Yt May 21 '16 at 07:16
  • Seems it contains a dependency that does not really make sense. Is that file really bundled with your installation or did you grab it somewhere? Looks a bit like a miss matched architecture or similar... – arkascha May 21 '16 at 07:17
  • It's a fresh install, and no I didn't grab this dll somewhere :s – Ty Yt May 21 '16 at 07:18
  • Sorry, no idea then. I suggest you address the easyPHP distributor or their forum. They should be able to help. – arkascha May 21 '16 at 07:19
  • Ok thanks for trying! – Ty Yt May 21 '16 at 07:21

I'm in similar situation where I removed the ";" before the cURL extension in php.ini, restarted the webserver however cURL still did not enable.

I'm using EasyPHP 16.1 (PHP 5.6.19 x86, Apache 2.4.18 x86).

My search ended when I found solution below.

  1. Copy libssh2.dll from php directory to Windows/system directory
  2. In php.ini #zend_extension remove ; front row ;extension=php_curl.dll
  3. Restart Apache server.

My PHP directory where libssh2.dll resides: C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-16.1\eds-binaries\php\php5619vc11x86x160731090901

Now it's working and can confirm by printing all loaded extensions using:

<?php

print_r(get_loaded_extensions());

?>
