I am currently moving my web app to amazon ec2. Since it’s only for testing, I use the free version called ec2 free tier with windows server 2008 instance. However, Although I have done all I know and read this thread ( How to enable cURL in PHP / XAMPP ). I just couldn’t use curl on my php script. it always creates the error
Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\xampp\htdocs\index.php on line 2
Here are all thing I have tried

  1. Install Wamp ( I tried it on XAMPP to)
  2. Uncomment out php_curl in php.ini file ( and restart apache)
  3. Copy two dll files to both system32 and syswow64

Could it have to do with the fact that I am using free vps?
Update:
Also, when I started the apache server in XAMPP , this error appeared
‘PHP Startup: unable to load dynamic library curl.dll’
However, I have double checked the ext directory and the php_curl.dll was in there.

    nope.

    be sure, that you have the files in the right place, usually its in the plugins folder for php! maybe you cann add a absolute path to your php.ini!
    be sure, you edit the correct ini file!

    php completly independent to your operatingsystem!

    just be sure to doublecheck everything. because its not saying, it has trouble loading your extention, its just saying, the function your trying to call, is not there. so i assume your extention ist not loading at all! 🙂
