CURL with SSL Support in WHMCS Installation

Hi there,

I believe that you need to install OpenSSL in order to get that working.

If you are on an Ubuntu server, you could do that with the following command:

sudo apt install openssl

Let me know how it goes! Regards, Bobby

Hello @Chijioke

Are you trying to install WHMCS manually or via Webmin as an additional addon for the control panel? I will also recommend installing OpenSSL as per Bobby’s reply.

You can check the full recommended requirements:

Also, check the requirements on the WHMCS site here:

PHP Version: Latest 7.3 or 7.4 Release PHP Memory Limit: 128MB PHP Database Extension: PDO PHP Extensions:

• Curl with SSL
• GD2 Image Library
• JSON Support
• XML
• Iconv
• MBString
• GMP
• OpenSSL
• BC Math
• Intl

MySQL Version: Latest 5.7 Ioncube Loaders: The latest 10.x Ioncube for your PHP version

As part of PCI compliance, an SSL library capable of TLS 1.2 may be required. If using OpenSSL, version 1.0.1c or newer is recommended.

If you’re installing it manually follow the steps listed on this site here:

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
