Im trying to use HybridAuth in one of my projects, the error message im getting is
Original error message: Hybridauth Library needs the CURL PHP extension.
Even though i have enabled cURL in my php.ini
extension=php_curl.dll
here is a screenshot of my phpinfo()
What else i have to do in-order to enable the cURL extension, the related php_curl.dll
is also present in the ext
dir
Message that i get when i restart the apache server
C:\Apache24\bin>httpd -k restart AH00558: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using fe80::a02e:1c05:c6ad:9332. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message
so it turns out i need a fixed version of curl which i could not find for PHP_5.6.4, so i downgraded to PHP Version 5.4.3
and then downloaded Fixed curl extension(dont know what it is) from here replaced the original php_curl.dll
with the one i downloaded and voila it worked.
The following SO post helped me fix the problem
PHP cURL not working - WAMP on Windows 7 64 bit
P.S please feel free to edit the answer as i dont know the exact reason why its working now and why it was not earlier...
