I tried the above solutions but it didn't work for me, just incase there any other person in the same shoes, this is what I did. I updated apt-get with the following command

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php

this i installed with php curl for the version of php that i was using, mine was

sudo apt-get install php7.1-curl

Answer 5

First Login to your server and check the PHP version which is installed on your server.

And then run the following commands:

sudo apt-get install php7.2-curl

sudo service apache2 restart

Replace the PHP version ( php7.2 ), with your PHP version.

Windows users:

Note: Note to Win32 Users In order to enable this module on a Windows environment, libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll, or, as of OpenSSL 1.1 libcrypto-.dll and libssl-.dll, must be present in your PATH. Also libssh2.dll must be present in your PATH. You don't need libcurl.dll from the cURL site.

Add your C:\wamp\bin\php\php7.1.15 to your PATH

Restart all services
