PHP CURL Enable Linux

Question

I have some php scripts that I ve been running on an Apache server on a windows machine   These scripts use curl which isn t enabled by default in php   For windows enabling it was as easy and un-commenting the line with the curl  dll file in the php ini file   Well since Linux uses  so instead of  dll files that wont work   Does anyone have any idea how to enable curl on an Apache server running on a Linux machine   Php is already installed so I m really hoping for a solution that doesn t involve re-installing php   Thanks in advance   Edit  The machine has the openSUSE v11 3 version of linux installed   I m didn t setup the machine and am interacting with it over command line putty    Any help would be great

I used the previous installation instruction on Ubuntu 12.4, and the php-curl module is successfully installed, (php-curl used in installing WHMCS billing System):
sudo apt-get install php5-curl
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

By the way the below line is not added to /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini config file as it's already mentioned: extension=curl.so

In addition the CURL module figures in http://localhost/phpinfo.php
Best,

If anyone else stumbles onto this page from google like I did   use putty  putty exe  to sign into your server and install curl using this command        sudo apt-get install php5-curl   Make sure curl is enabled in the php ini file  For me it s in  etc php5 apache2 php ini  if you can t find it  this line might be in  etc php5 conf d curl ini  Make sure the line         extension curl so   is not commented out then restart apache  so type this into putty       sudo  etc init d apache2 restart   Info for install from https   askubuntu com questions 9293 how-do-i-install-curl-in-php5  to check if it works this stack overflow might help you  Detect if cURL works

if you have used curl above the page and below your html is present and unfortunately your html page is not able to view then just enable your curl  But in order to check CURL is enable or not in php you need to write following code   echo  Curl     function exists  curl version      Enabled     Disabled

It dipends on which distribution you are in general but    You have to install the php-curl module and then enable it on php ini like you did in windows  Once you are done remember to restart apache demon
