Installing curl/libcurl

Submitted by billrw3 on Wed, 10/24/2007 - 2:42pm

I'm trying to install curl, and I've gotten debian to build the curl libs, but php5 isn't set up to support curl, and the appliance doesn't seem to have the configure apps available to allow for resetting php to use it.

Suggestions?

Thanks for any help!

Hi Bill, If you don't

Hi Bill,
If you don't really need to build it yourself you can just install the curl and php5 curl packages. Simply running:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php5-curl
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

The php5-curl package automatically adds the curl module to the php.ini file, you can see the change by running tail before and after: tail /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini.
