SMS Twilio API errors in command line but no errors in the browser but not sending messages

I had twilio working for some time now, but I wanted to make some changes and save the numbers that are coming with sending errors in a database to avoid sending them again, and somehow, Twilio stopped working. I used it from the browser which shows no errors, but I got these errors when I tried to run the script file from the command line.

Any help is appreciated.

N.B. First of all, you need to install php curl Before installing it you must ensure which version of php you are using and you need to install the same version for php curl.

  • Install php curl
php --version
// PHP 8.1.14
sudo apt-get install php8.1-curl
  • Do not forget to restart apache server
sudo systemctl restart apache2
