Enable php5-curl on OpenSuse with Nginx

Question

Hello,

I have OpenSuse Server 10.3 with nginx for web server.

I need to enable php5-curl. Installed it successfully. Then restarted web server, but nothing changed.

Any ideas?

Thank you

You probably didn't actually load the extension yet. Look at your phpinfo() to find out where PHP is looking for .ini files. If you have a section labelled something like "Scan this dir for additional .ini files", then make a new file in that directory ('curl.ini') with the single line:

extension=curl.so

If you don't have a 'Scan' dir, look for 'Loaded Configuration File' and append the same line to the end of that file.
