i have a problem loading php_curl.dll under following circumstances:
XAMPP for windows 1.7.2 Apache 2.2.12 PHP 5.3.0 mod_ssl enabled in http.conf php_curl.dll enabled in php/ext copied ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll in system32 checked the extension by php: if (extension_loaded('curl'))-> FALSE ! and all i got in apache errors.log is: [Sat May 22 15:13:20 2010] [error] an unknown filter was not added: DEFLATE
can you tell me what do i have to do ??!?!?!?
Most likely Windows is not able to find your DLL.
you should try adding the path to your DLL-s in System Variables
Right click on My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Enviorment Variables -> System Variables
Select Path -> Edit add the line ";c:\xampp\....\" without " next to other paths, remember ; as it defines a new PATH system variables
do not remove the entire line just add it next to others
LE: you need to restart your computer
The error is unrelated to PHP. It means you are somehow relying on Apache's mod_deflate, but that Apache module is not loaded. Try enabling mod_deflate in httpd.conf or commenting out the offending line (search for DEFLATE in httpd.conf).
As for the PHP curl extension, you must make sure it's activated in php.ini. Make sure extension_diris set to the directory php_curl.dll is in:
extension_dir = "C:/whatever"
and then add
extension=php_curl.dll
