Hello,
Note that if you’ve just installed curl for PHP you would need to restart your Apache service as well.
If this does not help, I would recommend checking in your php info file if there are any custom php.ini files loaded which could be causing the issue for you.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
Hello, @ankitwpjust
As per Bobby’s reply you will need to restart the web server in order the changes you made to take effect.
Once you have installed CURL on server, you need to restart your webserver on which PHP is running:
If you are using Apache server then use either of the following commands to restart the server:
sudo service apache2 restart
or
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Similarly, if you are using Nginx server, then use either of the following commands:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
or
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
