Question CURL update: phpinfo still showing old version

[Andreas2022]

Server operating system version

Linux 4.18.0 (AlmaLinux 8.7)

Plesk version and microupdate number

Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.48

Hello,
I've upgraded CURL via SSH terminal successfully to version 7.86.0, but phpinfo (PHP vers. 8.1.13) is still showing the old version of CURL 7.61.1.
What must I do, to bring PHP and new CURL together?
Thank you very much in advance!
Andreas

Hi,

Can you tell us what you did to upgrade CURL?

 

[Andreas2022]

Hello and thank you for your reply!

I followed the instructions on this page:

https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043102852-Installing-a-custom-version-of-curl-command-line-tool-

In the meanwhile I've read that this is not php-curl. Is that the reason that PHP doesn't recognize the new Curl-Version?

 

[Maarten]

Yes, that's the reason.

However, php-curl is a dedicated Plesk module:

# rpm -qf /opt/plesk/php/8.1/lib64/php/modules/curl.so
plesk-php81-8.1.12-0redhat.8.221031.0931.x86_64

How did you run the phpinfo test?

 

[Andreas2022]

I've just created a file with this line of code:
phpinfo( );

You have to compile libcurl manually to get a more recent version.

But before you do, please read this:

Question - Curl update using build from source - safe or not?

Hi All, I am stuck between a rock, a hard place, and a OS that hasn't updated curl in ages! :) Firstly, here's some details : OS : CloudLinux 7.7 (Valery Bykovsky)‬ OS : Centos 7.7 Plesk : Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.24, last updated on Feb 19, 2020 08:16 PM Curl...

Ok, I understand. Unfortunately I'm an absolute beginner in handling linux-commands, but I urgently need the curl-update. Could you tell me, please, what exactly I need to do to compile libcurl manually?
