WampServer

Gurus out there PLEASE HELP!!!

I have wamp installed on my system (Windows 7) and am trying to run a script that uses curl() ( curl_init() ) through my local server.

I have enabled php_curl() on my wamp extensions and have checked the php.ini file in both my php/bin and my apache/bin folders and both times, the line "extension=php_curl.dll" does NOT have a semi-colon in front of it.

Now, when I try and run the command through the command prompt, I get the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\wamp\www\auctions\scripts\auction\Requester.php on line 28
... And line 28 of Requester.php simply says "$this->curl=curl_init();"

A strange thing, though, is that when I run phpinfo(), I get that:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path = C:\Windows

BUT it also says for the curl portion that:
cURL support = enabled
cURL Information = 7.19.4
Age = 3


I am truly at wit's end here - I don't know why this is happening or what to do about it... I am THINKING it has something to do with running the php command at the command line, but I don't know what needs to be done so as to make it run well.


PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Thanks!

check the php.ini again


your looking for the Loaded Config File
not the expected one..


Either way this is from the php.exe used for apache..the command line exe is different

its in the php folder

[phpCli]
phpCliFile = php-win.exe

i think u need to put the curl exe and cert into that folder ( ages since i tried)

Steven,

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying or what to do... could oyu please elaborate... I write like a pro, perhaps, but am an utter newbie!!!

I tried copying the php_curl.dll file into the same directory as the php-win.exe, but nothing changed with regards to the error. I then tried pasting a copy of it into the same directory as the file I was trying to run, but also no help...

What should I copy from where to where and what would I have to type at the command prompt to get it to work?

This issue is just **SO** frustrating!!!

Thanks!

i never used the extention when using command line

it should work but check which php.ini is loaded.

to do this use

php-win.exe -i > C:\phpinfo.txt

to see which the CLI exe is trying to use..
