Hi All,

I need to run a program with curl support. I am using php 4.3.6 and i have copied the php_curl.dll file into windows/system32 and c:/php folders and also i have copied the libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll files into the same directories and uncommented extension=php_curl.dll in php.ini file. But when i try to execute the program i got a warning message says: unable to load dynamic library php_curl.dll the specified module could not be found.

can anybody please tell me how to resolve this problem?

Thanks,
Sridevi.

re: problem with curl


Hi.

Seeing as you are using Windows you should try to restart your HTTP server and/or reboot....or unplug the server, and kill the power to the house, and maybe the neighborhood.
(Or maybe just switch to a proper OS :P)

Are you sure the files are supposed to be in the Windows/System32 dir?
I usually just put extra DLL's like that int the Windows dir.

I would also strongly suggest upgrading to PHP5.
PHP4 is old and deprecated... Antiquated even :)
