cURL with AsynchDNS

[MojoCreations]

How can I compile cURL with AsynchDNS? Where is the cURL install and what command do i need to use to compile it with AsynchDNS? Thanks in advance.

Hello

cURL itself is installed through EasyApache under the "Exhaustive Options List" for PHP. You can find it located at:

/usr/bin/curl

You would need to manually compile libcurl with the AsynchDNS variable enabled.

Thank you.

Thanks for the response Michael. I was trying to find out how to compile it. This is what i have done so far, will this work?

wget http://c-ares.haxx.se/download/c-ares-1.10.0.tar.gz
tar xvzf c-ares-1.10.0.tar.gz
cd c-ares-1.10.0/
./configure
make
make install

wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
tar jxvf ./curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
rm -f ./curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
cd /usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0
./configure --enable-ares --enable-threaded-resolver --enable-http --enable-ftp --enable-proxy --enable-tftp --enable-ntlm --enable-static --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl --enable-ipv6 --enable-shared --disable-ldap --with-libidn --disable-rtsp --without-zlib
make
make install

----Update----

I actually tried this above and it didn't seem to work, everything compiled and i restarted the server but AsynchDNS still isn't enabled.

I also tried installing c-ares first, then compiling curl with the --enable-ares=/usr/local/ variable but it doesn't seem to have worked either.

I ran the install again after installing c-ares, then i ran curl-config and it shows that the feature AsynchDNS is installed but its not showing up in my phpinfo file

root [/usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0]# curl-config --features --protocols

libz

****Update****
I ran everything as needed and ran curl --version which shows the correct curl version that i just installed but thats not what shows up in my phpinfo page, it still shows the old version and no AsynchDNS.

Can anyone help with this? I need to get my version of curl with asynchdns into the easyapache compiler.

Compiling Curl with AsynchDNS in Apache

I haven't been able to get any type of response to my previous post and think that maybe i posted to the wrong forum. This is what i have done in hopes to get my curl version with asynchdns to compile with apache because if i run curl version through ssh it shows the newest version of curl with asynchdns but if i run a phpinfo.php it shows an older curl version without asynchdns. Does anyone have any idea how I can get this compiled when i run easyapache?

wget http://c-ares.haxx.se/download/c-ares-1.10.0.tar.gz
tar xvzf c-ares-1.10.0.tar.gz
cd c-ares-1.10.0/
./configure
make
make install

wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
tar jxvf ./curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
rm -f ./curl-7.32.0.tar.bz2
cd /usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0
./configure --enable-ares --enable-threaded-resolver --enable-http --enable-ftp --enable-proxy --enable-tftp --enable-ntlm --enable-static --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl --enable-ipv6 --enable-shared --disable-ldap --with-libidn --disable-rtsp --without-zlib
make
make install

I actually tried this above and it didn't seem to work, everything compiled and i restarted the server but AsynchDNS still isn't enabled via phpinfo.php

Next

I ran the install again after installing c-ares, then i ran curl-config and it shows that the feature AsynchDNS is installed but its not showing up in my phpinfo file

root [/usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0]# curl-config --features --protocols

I ran everything as needed and ran curl --version which shows the correct curl version that i just installed but thats not what shows up in my phpinfo page, it still shows the old version and no AsynchDNS.

root@vps [/usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0]# curl --version

So it looks like curl is installed (new version) with asynchdns but its not compiling in easyapache.

Threads merged and moved to the EasyApache forum. There is no need to start a second thread.

Hoping someone has an answer to this issue.

This seemed to be an easy answer even though no one was able to respond. Once you have your working version of Curl installed and c-ares you can then add these function calls to

/var/cpanel/easy/apache/rawopts/all_php5

You need to make an all_php5 file and enter the below function calls to that file

--with-gssapi
--with-curl=/usr/local/src/curl-7.32.0
--enable-ares=/usr/local/src/c-ares-1.10.0

Save your file then recompile easyapache and BAM, you should have the new Curl and AsynchDNS working.
