CURL error (CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated)

Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/path/curl.php on line 594

I don't have access to php.ini. Can this be fixed without editing php.ini?

This is Worked for me!

        $ch = curl_init();

        $header=array(
          'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.2; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0',
          'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8',
          'Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5',
          'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate',
          'Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7',
          'Keep-Alive: 115',
          'Connection: keep-alive',
        );
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $url); 
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.2; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); //Set curl to return the data instead of printing it to the browser.
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'curl_cookies.txt');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'curl_cookies.txt');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, 'gzip,deflate');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header);

    $data = curl_exec($ch);


    curl_close($ch);

     $status = curl_getinfo($curl);

 if ($status['http_code'] == 200) {
    return $data;    
} else {
    echo $url;
    return @file_get_contents($url);
}

safe_mode belongs to PHP_INI_SYSTEM - so if that's the issue, you're out of luck, these items can only be set in php.ini and vhost config.

open_basedir belongs to PHP_INI_ALL, so you could set it in .htaccess using php_value.

See this comment in the manual. It provides an ugly workaround. I believe this restriction is effect because of a bug in the curl library where it would follow redirects to local resources, but that should be fixed by now, so I see no reason for this restriction.
