The "curl" extension file must be loaded
Using XAMPP 1.6.7 I have installed the community version of Magento. But there seems to be a problem. I am getting the error "The extension file" curl "must be loaded." On the other computer, everything seems fine.
(other computer)
Intel (R) Pentium (R) Dual CPU, E2140 @ 1.60Hz,
1.60 GHz. 504MB RAM
and XP professional 2002 sp2
My computer is less powerful (Inet Pentium 4 1.6 GHz with sp2.)
Please help me, thanks.
From http://www.menyhart.net/blog/developer-stuff/enabling-curl-on-xampp/
In "xampp-win32-1.6.2-installer.exe" you will have 4 php files to edit:
C: \ XAMPP \ Apache \ Bin \ php.ini
C: \ XAMPP \ PHP \ php.ini
C: \ XAMPP \ PHP \ php4 \ php.ini
C: \ xampp \ php \ php4 \ php4.iniOpen the files one at a time. With Notepad ++ Press Ctrl F And search \ Find "cUrl", you will see "; extension = php_curl.dll" all you need to do is DELETE ";" from all 4 files Make them:
extension = php_curl.dll And restart the Xampp Server. Curl support will now be enabled.

Change xampp / php / php.ini - change line:
;extension=php_curl.dll
to
extension=php_curl.dll
(just remove ;
before the line)
Remember to restart your server before trying to install Magento again.
