Platform

OS:

Ubuntu 17.04

Running PHP: 7.1.0

Installing PHP: 7.1.3

This happens with anyversion i try

i've tried installing sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev and all the other versions of libcurl4

I was getting the same issue after updating to Ubuntu 17.04. Looks like curl is located now in /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl. As a temporary solution I symlinked the file:

cd /usr/include
sudo ln -s x86_64-linux-gnu/curl

[MaxHogervorst]

workaround -> uninstall all libcurl libs like libcurl4-gnutls-dev
phpbrew install php-7.1.3 +dbs +mb +default
and then install libcurl again

[morozov]

Looks like the proper place to fix it is PHP itself: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74125.

[Oxicode]

me too

[Oxicode]

Fix

1. cd /usr/local/include sudo ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl curl
2. sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

[timucingelici]

You can include the curl path with +curl=/path/to/libcurl/installation

The following has solved the problem for me on OSX after installing curl with brew

phpbrew install 7.1.7 +curl=/usr/local/opt/curl

[morozov]

#74125 is fixed in PHP 7.2. Anyone wants to verify the fix?

[dserodio]

@timucingelici's workaround didn't work for me on Ubuntu 17.10:

$ phpbrew install 5.4.45 +curl=/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl

...

First, I just want to say, I'm still kinda new here as where I'm sure most of you have been here much longer, but the more i use GitHub to fill in the gaps, the more I appreciate it. As it was pointed out here to us... Canonical - pulled a fast one on us when they moved the Curl Directory. Thank you Oxicode for post commented on Jun 21, 2017 - your symbolic link got me past the Curl Hurtle

[jayantrane]

Solved:
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

[OnyekaIjeh]

Didn't work for me

[logical-and]

^ the same

[logical-and]

I've solved by #925 (comment)

[amirouche]

On Ubuntu bionic 18.04 LTS, install php 5.6 I got the following error:

configure: error: Please reinstall the libcurl distribution -

    easy.h should be in <curl-dir>/include/curl/

To fix it, I installed libcurl4-openssl-dev and symlinked the directory that contains curl headers:

/usr/local/include$ sudo ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl/

Then I installed php 5.6 with the following command:

phpbrew install 5.6 +curl

[Michael-LiK]

Fix

1. cd /usr/local/include sudo ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl curl
2. sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

nice ,you help me solve the same problem.

I think several of these "solutions" solve this for newer PHP versions, but not for older PHP versions being built on reasonably recent Debian/Ubuntu. For example, none of them seem to solve the problem to allow building php5.4 on Debian Stretch.

[codeasashu]

I my case (MacOS Mojave), I had to use this to work with php 5.6.40:

phpbrew install --jobs=$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu) 5.6 \
    +default+mysql \
    +iconv="$(brew --prefix libiconv)" \
    +bz2="$(brew --prefix bzip2)" \
    +zlib="$(brew --prefix zlib)" \
    +curl="$(brew --prefix curl)"

[Kristories]

phpbrew install --jobs=$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu) 5.6 \
    +default+mysql \
    +iconv="$(brew --prefix libiconv)" \
    +bz2="$(brew --prefix bzip2)" \
    +zlib="$(brew --prefix zlib)" \
    +curl="$(brew --prefix curl)"

@codeasashu Exception: Variant "default+mysql" is not defined

Added a section to the troubleshooting guide: https://github.com/phpbrew/phpbrew/wiki/Troubleshooting#on-ubuntu-2004-easyh-should-be-in-curl-dirincludecurl
I used the fix by @mahagr and @Oxicode, which works fine on Ubuntu 20.04.

[FosterG4]

Fix

1. cd `/usr/local/include` `sudo ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/curl curl`

2. `sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev`

this work for me on ubuntu 18.04 LTS
