install composer fails in windows 10 The openssl extension is missing

openssl missing whene install composer

my windows: 10

local server: UwAmp

I've activated openssl in :

C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\php.ini

C:\UwAmp\bin\php\php-5.4.31\php.ini-development & php.ini-production (2 files) by delete - ; -

As well as from UwAmp GUI

But

This problem is not solved

The openssl extension is missing, which means that secure HTTPS transfers are impossible. If possible you should enable it or recompile php with --with-openssl

Thank you

Copy php.in from php dir to Apache24/bin works for me. Please make sure you enable the extension in there.

I ran into the same issue installing Composer with MAMP for Windows 10. My php.ini file was not in the same directory as php.exe. I'm guessing Composer doesn't know to look elsewhere for the ini.

Try making a copy of your php.ini from C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\php.ini, pasting it into C:\UwAmp\bin\php\php-5.4.31, and then try to run the Composer setup again. Confirm that extension=php_openssl.dll is not commented out with a ;.

Composer has nothing to do with apache, so C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\php.ini doesn't matter.

php.ini-development and php.ini-production are sort of examples to get started with. So you should choose one (probably development) and rename it to php.ini for it to actually work.
