Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in E:\wamp\www\SEO\distribution\api\api.php on line 20

I don't know how to resolve the problem. Do I need to install the curl lib function, or something else? How can I resolve this error?

Answer 1

url_init() function is a part of cURL extension which is not available by default in PHP.

You have to install that extension. If you're not a server administrator then you probably can't do anything but ask him/her to do that.

However there is a workaround. cURL is just a abstract layer over HTTP protocol. If you know how HTTP protocol works you can write your own cURL using fsockopen() function.

Answer 2

Its telling you that curl_init() is undefined so it'll need figured out why. You'd probably want a PHP coder to look at this for you.

Answer 3

Is curl is installed on your server? Use php_info() function or check directly with your host provider.

Answer 4

Install and enable curl http://www.php.net/manual/en/curl.installation.php
