new cURL release, CVS snapshots
Thu, 17 Jun 2004 10:56:52 GMT
Hi all,
already some days ago cURL 7.12.0 was released:
http://www.gknw.com/mirror/curl/

unfortunately at this the makefiles where not uptodate, so it doesnt 
compile from the source without tweaking the makefiles...
therefore I have started to do automatic cURL builds every 4 hours; the 
cURL project has a perlscript for that, and it's easy to setup a host for 
automatic builds. The build logs you can see here:
http://curl.haxx.se/auto/
while the binaries are downloadable from here:
http://www.gknw.com/mirror/curl/autobuilds/

ATTENTION: these binaries are build with gcc, and because of the alignment 
issue the lib is not usable with PHP!!! You can test and use them 
standalone!

If others are interested if providing some resources for automatic builds, 
just email me (my real address is on my site), and I can help with the 
setup. We also need a Mac OS X machinem someout here who can provide me a 
permanent ssh account on such a machine?

Guenter.

Hi Guenter,

Your post made me think you might be able to help on this one.

I have curl installed very effortlessly on my Linux server, but where I 
work they have Novell Netware servers, but we do run mySQL, PHP, and 
Apache.  

I got the two nlm files (curl.nlm and curllib.nlm).  When I log into 
Novell netware at the command line, and type curl --help, I do get the 
help docs.

However, I can't seem to get apache to recognize cURL -- when I call

$ch=curl_init('https://somesecuresite.com/etc');

I get back a fatal error - call to unknown function message.

Any idea what I need to do to make curl recognized from Apache (i.e. on 
php pages)?

Thanks,
Sam Fullman

you need the cURL PHP extension, you can find it at Forge PHP project 
site where you also can find latest PHP which is also needed:
http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?php

attention: there are different binaries for Apache 1.3 and 2.x, so make 
sure you download the right ones!

if you are not sure what exactly you have to download and where to put 
the files, then please ask again and include more info about the Apache, 
PHP and NetWare versions you use.

Guenter.
