Installing Curl in apache?
I need the extension curl for php and cant find any documentation online on how to install it. Normally the libaries are there from what I have read. This is the message I get when I try to install it fromn the commad shell.

Package libcurl3-dev is a virtual package provided by: libcurl4-openssl-dev 7.18.0-1ubuntu2.1 You should explicitly select one to install. E: Package libcurl3-dev has no installation candidate

see my prior post (drop the "dev" stuff"
Reply 5apt-get update apt-get install curl libcurl3 php5-curl
I have done this a few times and gotten Curl to post well. Has worked w/ Hardy Joomla and lucid Lamp from the command
Also this is working to install GD (which I need for Magento - don't know what it is) (need to drop the 5 in PHP to install php-apc (accelerator) -- thanks to Adrian for his Magento Posts re GD and APC.
apt-get install php5-gd
drop the "dev" out of the libaries and use the text above -- I did this awhile back and was having the same trouble you were/or are.
Typo...
Reply 6It's libcurl3 not libcurl13! Try that! :)
Webshell is available from your browser
Reply 7Just like Webmin but you use port 12320 (instead of 12321 like you do for Webmin) eg https://<appliance-name-or-IP>:12320
Alternatively you can use an SSH connection eg using a SSH client such as PuTTY.
Where is WebShell
Reply 8how to use fopen
Reply 9i have absolutely no idea about fopen() in php and php , however i suppose i am trobuled by this thing only... initially i was unaware about such thingh when i started this thread
/forum/support/20111212/joomla-cannot-interact-internet
however this problem is now turning like a beast... webmin can esiely interact to external internet, however joomla is getting mad day by day.
Took quite a while but two parts here:
Do this in WebShell (not issue a Command from Webmin)
drop the middle libcurl2-dev from this command
be sure to do both lines: (needed for MageBridge Joomla)
Still need now to upgrade php version to 5.2.8 or greater. How to do that in Turnkey Joomla install (most recent version).
