I have just downloaded the latest xampp and it is my first time to use curl. I have an account in appannie and have read one of the posts here regarding his/her attempt to access appannie.
Here is the link of that post: Appannie api basic authentication
Well, to make it simpler here is that code he made:
<?php
$whmusername = "username";
$whmpassword = "password";
$query = "https://api.appannie.com/v1/accounts";
$ch = curl_init();
// Sets the URL cURL will open
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $query);
// Here's the HTTP auth
// The 3rd argument is your Twitter username and password joined with a colon
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $whmusername.":".$whmpassword);
// Makes curl_exec() return server response
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// And here's the result XML
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
// inserted: echo 'hello';
print $response;
// inserted: echo 'world';
?>
I tried to use that but nothing happened. So i inserted echo (which i have labeled in the comment) both before and after response to see if my php network is really working and it just displayed:
hello world
So i was wondering if curl library in xampp and have read this post: curl not working in xampp localhost
In the comments were the steps but what i found out was the curl in php.ini in php dir is already not in comment form and there was no php.ini in apache dir.
And i the 1st post that i referred regarding appannie, i have already change the username into the email account used in appannie.
Please any help? Thanks
There are three different php.ini
files that require modification for the cURL library to work on XAMPP.
C:\Program Files\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini
C:\Program Files\xampp\php\php.ini
C:\Program Files\xampp\php\php4\php.ini
You need to uncomment (if not already) the line for cURL Extension:
;extension=php_curl.dll
^----- remove semi-colon
Once you've made the change, you'll need to restart XAMPP.
Also, make sure that there are two files in your Windows system32
folder: libeay32.dll
and ssleay32.dll
. If these files are missing, you can copy them over from the PHP folder.
Hope this helps!
