As of at least PHP 5.3.9, if you are continuing to use a cURL session handle after downloading a
file and closing the file handle, you will need to change CURLOPT_FILE back to stdout, and cannot
count simply on a side effect of CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER to do so, even if you are setting it. For
example:
<?php
$ch = curl_init();
$fh = fopen(\'/path/to/stored/file/example_file.dat\', \'w\');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fh);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, \'http://example.com/example_file.dat\');
curl_exec($ch);
fflush($fh);
fclose($fh);
//must reset cURL file handle. Not doing so will cause a warning to be
//thrown and for cURL to default to output regardless
//for our example, we\'ll set return transfer.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, fopen(\'php://stdout\', \'w\'));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, \'http://example.org/index.html\');
$html = curl_exec($ch); //this will now work
