#19814 [Com]: cannot load php_curl.dll, but it is there

ID: 19814 Comment by: dmgreer at airmail dot net Reported By: akorthaus at web dot de Status: Bogus Bug Type: cURL related Operating System: Windows2000 SP3 PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: I had this same problem on the same kind of system: PHP 4.2.2 with Apache 2 on Win2000 SP3. What finally fixed it for me was loading libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll into c:\winnt\system32. When I restarted Apache with just libeay32.dll, it complained that it couldn't find ssleay32.dll, so I just copied that from my PHP/dlls directory too and then it worked.

I'm running PHP 4.2.2 with Apache 2 on Win2000 SP3 and I _have_ an original winnt\system32\msvcr70.dll, perhaps form SP3. I also have the php_curl.dll in the correct folder, all other modules work well this way! I also have the "real" curl run on my computer, therefore I needed the other required dlls in system32 folder, so if curl works, php_curl should work too! I also copied all related dlls into serveral folders, but nothing worked. I think this _is_ a PHP-bug! I get the same error as described in the following: <quote from php-manual: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php#AEN9715> orangevwbus at yahoo dot com 05-Jan-2002 08:12 In win32 (Windows 2000), I couldn't get apache to start with PHP/curl support 'cause it said it couldn't find the php_curl.dll. Well it was there. MSVCRT.dll was there as well, but after I ran the dll through "Depends", there's a new DLL for the Microsoft .NET stuff. It's called msvcr70.dll, and without it, php_curl.dll won't load. I didn't want to load .NET framework on my machine (which msdn.microsoft.com suggested) I did a google search and found a downloadable copy of the file and threw it in my %system%\system32 folder and all the lights and whistles came on. d dot kingma at ContentS dot nl 30-Jan-2002 08:47 in addition to the files named above, you should also add the file libeay32.dll to your PHP directory. The file can be found in the dlls directory </quote from php-manual> And please have a look at http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2001-05/0058.html rgds Andreas ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19814&edit=1
