Hi there I am having trouble activating a wordpress plugin "https://en-au.wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-web-services/"

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

The official Amazon Web Services SDK requires PHP 5.3.3+ and cURL 7.16.2+ compiled with OpenSSL and zlib. Your server currently has no PHP cURL library activated.

I am on Ubuntu LAMP stack, I have checked that cURL is installed -

php -v outputs:

PHP 7.0.19-1+deb.sury.org~trusty+2 (cli) (built: May 22 2017 13:29:59) (NTS)

Copyright (c) 1997-2017 The PHP Group`

curl -V outputs: 

curl 7.35.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.35.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1f zlib/1.2.8 libidn/1.28 librtmp/2.3

Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtmp rtsp smtp smtps telnet tftp Features: AsynchDNS GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP`

I'm not sure what the issue is?

Follow these steps:

  1. Install cURL:

    sudo apt-get install php-curl OR sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl

  2. Enable cURL extension in php.ini file. ;extension=php_curl.dll Uncomment this.

All done, Cheers!

  • Tired this but still facing the issue. :/ On ubuntu server curl is installed successfully but on Wordpress its missing. `php-curl is already the newest version (2:8.2+93+ubuntu20.04.1+deb.sury.org+2).` – Harsh Maisheri May 16 '23 at 11:22
