Ok.. I figured it out !
i decided to look at the dlls the php_curl.dll required to work.
then i looked at the ones that those dlls required, and i found that i was missing
msvcr70.dll
which i believe is a newer dll so most people don't have it.. which probably means you
!
as soon as i put msvcr70.dll into my system32 folder, cURL was working !
now it did say it was missing php_curl.dll before i fixed it which confused me, but i
think what happens is.. the php programmers made the error handling kinda like this:
if (module.loaded = true) continue; else echo "Warning: $warning";
so it dosn't tell you the exact error in this case...
here's how i figured it out..
I opened up php_curl.dll, and i wrote down each dll it required.
then out of all those dlls, i wrote down the ones that they required also.
then i searched for them on my computer one by one using windows find.
when i found that one was missing, bingo !!
here's my list
php_curl.dll
|
V
php4ts.dll - (Needs -> kernel32.dll, user32.dll, wsock32.dll, advapi32.dll,
ole32.dll, oleaut32.dll, odbc32.dll, msvcrt.dll, msvcirt.dll, winsock.dll ...)
SSLEAY32.dll - (Needs -> libeay32.dll,
kernel32.dll
msvcr70.dll - this one was missing !)
LIBEAY32.dll - (Needs -> netapi.dll, user32.dll, kernel32.dll, advapi32.dll,
wsock32.dll, gdi32.dll, msvcr70.dll)
Kernel32.dll - (Needs -> NTDLL.dll, twian.dll, dnsapi.dll, advapi.dll, psapi.dll,
twain_32.dll, mem16.dll, mscat32.dll.. there more but i figured if my windows was
running then every file in this dll would be there.. lol...)
Wsock32.dll - (Needs -> kernel32.dll, ws2_32.dll, wsock32.dll, MSVCRT.dll)
so my advice to you if your having this problem, is that its a dll (if your extensions
path isn't wrong) so you need to check each dll and make sure your not missing one.
and if you are... then that's probably the problem.
find it on maybe a search engine. download it and put it into your system32 directory.
i hope i helped some people.. i was trying for 24hours to figure this out..
