Solution 1

Uncomment the following line: extension=php_curl.dll in the php.ini configuration file of your XAMPP/WAMP server.

Solution 2

If you still can't resolve it even after uncommenting extension=php_curl.dll, here's a solution:

Click on wamp icon.
Navigate to php > php extensions.
Enable php_curl in the extension list.

Solution 3

There is PHP module php_curl, you need to enable it if you are installing it on local system. This setting is in php.ini file. If you are on shared server, need to contact your Hosting Company. And if you have full server access just enable it.

Solution 4

enable the curl extensions in the folowing -- php-pear.ini, php.ini, and php5.ini in the php directory, and the php.ini in the apache/bin directory

By enabling i mean, uncomment the lines

And do not forget to restart Xamp server

Solution 5

In Ubuntu 16.04 default PHP version is 7.0, if you want to use different version then you need to install PHP package according to PHP version:

First of all Install CURL using this command:-

sudo apt-get install curl

After that using these commands according to your PHP versions:-

1-> PHP 7.0: sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl    
2-> PHP 7.1: sudo apt-get install php7.1-curl    
3-> PHP 7.2: sudo apt-get install php7.2-curl    
4-> PHP 5.5: sudo apt-get install php5.5-curl
5-> PHP 5.6: sudo apt-get install php5.6-curl

Of course restart apache after changing the file contents.

@Chiragit007: add LAMP... or maybe just remove XAMPP/WAMP... php.ini is just relevant.
