I’ve updated Ubuntu from 16.04 to 18.04 and then from 18.04 to 20.04. Now two plugins on Wordpress give me these errors:
1- OneSignal Push: cURL is not installed on this server. cURL is required to send notifications. Please make sure cURL is installed on your server before continuing.
2- Composer detected issues in your platform: Your Composer dependencies require the following PHP extensions to be installed: curl
I’ve tried every related solution on the internet so far but could not solve this problem yet. I ran sudo apt-get install curl, but nothing has changed. I also got this: curl is already the newest version (7.68.0-1ubuntu2.2)

Hi @rem3n,
You’ll need to install PHP’s curl module rather than the curl service on your server. Try to execute the following command on your droplet
apt list --installed php*
It will show you all your PHP packages. It’s possible you actually have two PHP versions rather than one. You can remove the old one and just use the newest.

Hi @rem3n,
I’m glad the issue is resolved now!
Regarding cleanup, I saw you have a lot of PHP versions installed. If you are not using them, I’ll recommend removing all of them but the one that you are using.
