Hi,

I am trying to create a wp test site on my local Ubuntu 18 engine but it keeps showing the error below, i have tried to re-install easyengine many times but it doesn’t help.

I don’t know what is wrong

##sudo ee site create test --type=wp

If you’re on Windows:

Go to your php.ini file and remove the ; mark from the beginning of the following line:

;extension=php_curl.dll

After you have saved the file you must restart your HTTP server software (e.g. Apache) before this can take effect.

For Ubuntu 13.0 and above, simply use the debundled package. In a terminal type the following to install it and do not forgot to restart server.

sudo apt-get install php-curl

Or if you’re using the old PHP5

sudo apt-get install php5-curl
or

sudo apt-get install php5.6-curl
You can try using this sc to mp3 converter to hear some music till this process executes.
