Help installing Curl

I am having serious problems installing Curl on my server. I changed the php.ini (took out the ";"). Put msvcrt.dll, ssleay32.dll, libeay32.dll into /system32. Yet I still get the same error > Error: cURL is not installed, please contact your server administrator.. Or I get the error > Fatal error: Unknown function: curl_init() in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\curl.php on line 2. It's a Apache 2.2.2, PHP 5.1.4 running on windows XP SP2. I also rebooted. Where am I going wrong!!

XP! that's where your wrong.. but that has nothing to do with your curl issues. i don't know, i'm still very novice with coding with curl… someone will know though

Since you are running Xp, why don't you install the latest version of WAMP. You can easily add Apache or PHP modules by simply clicking on them in a menu :)

Excellent!:D Thanks alot

Noo… not XAMPP. You'll be killing yourself every time you upgrade anything.

As for installing curl, I'll assume you mean curl the PHP extension, not curl the program (hell I have both installed).

You should have a line in php.ini around line 529 as follows: extension_dir = "C:\php\ext" Make sure that points to the right folder. Then around 639 you have the block for the extensions, my curl line is as follows: extension=php_curl.dll Of course make sure you have php_curl.dll in the folder. If not, post here and I'll send you my copy.

Og and I've got ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll in c:\php\. But that's cos I've got c:\php in the systems PATH variable too. If you don't want to do that, then shoving them in c:\windows\system\ should do the trick.
