PHP curl ext startup error note since 8.4rc4

[ophian]

Description

Since PHP 8.4rc4 I get a startup notification

Der Prozedureinsprungpunkt "libssh2_session_set_read_timeout" was not found in DLL "C:\xampp\php8.4\ext\php_curl.dll".

(partly translated) with VS17 x64 Thread Safe (2024-Nov-05 15:34:00) on Win.
The previous RC3 and all others before did not do have this.

Has this been noted before? Has anything changed for curl regarding the mentioned "hook"? Shall I wait or disable curl for long?
Thanks.

PHP Version

I've just checked, and found no issues. I assume that it is related to the update to libssh2 1.11.1 what we only did a few weeks ago. I also assume that you use Apache, in which case likely an older libsssh2.dll is grabbed up. Replace the old libssh2.dll with the new libssh2.dll (from the PHP download), and check whether everything works as expected (also make a backup of the old libssh2.dll, just in case).

Note that you can also check the file properties (Eigenschaften) details, where the version of libssh2.dll is reported (the new one is 1.11.1; you likely have 1.10.0 or maybe older).

Hi, Christoph, yes the one in my php8.4 directory is the new one 1.11.1.0. I copied it over to the origin php directory, which libssh2.dll file did nor even announce a version, restartet, but no change. I run secured sites locally, so maybe that is the culprit..?

Ah..., just found out that apache/bin has its own dll file, which was v.1.10.0 like you mentioned.
Now the popup message is gone. Thank you!

Welcome to DLL hell. ;) I guess you either using XAMPP or had copied the file previously. :)
