Cannot load required extension: curl

edited March 2010 in Installation
Hi,

I am trying to install statusnet on our Fedora Core release 5 (Bordeaux) server.
I get the "Cannot load required extension: curl" message.

I installed curl with "yum install curl" but no change.
I looked for curl extension for php with "yum search curl"
all I found is php-pear-Net-Curl.
Is that what is required?

Thanks for your help.

  • It's definitely the PHP curl extension you're after, so that looks promising to me.
  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • It works fine,
    but to install the module : apt-get install php5-curl
    ;)
  • I have downloaded it and it appeared can not load extension curl,
    what should i do? and i can i find it?

  • @sengkeat what operating system are you suing for your hosting environment, I'll need some more details.
  • FWIW, I had installed curl according to the instructions and it didn't find it. I then installed it again and it worked. Ubuntu also. Possible that the subsequent steps overwrites something?
  • @weblivz You probably just needed to restart apache.
  • For Mandriva, just need to install php-curl and php-pear.
    Example:
    urpmi php-curl php-pear php-pear-auth
    /!\ sometime package manager ask for php-pear-egroupware. don't seem to make trouble with StatusNet.

    You can use WAMP Server to install StatusNet locall, you need to enable/install php_curl extension in WAMP Server. To Install php_curl right click on WAMP server icon in system tray.

    Go to PHP ----> PHP extensions ----> php_curl

    left click on php_curl in extensions menu to enable it.

    I was able to install StatusNet successfuly after enabling php_curl extension in wamp server in windows XP.

    For detail you can read following article and watch video.
