On my Wordpress site the cURL command doesn't seem to work:
When I login into Wordpress, it clearly says cURL is not installed:
However, when I SSH into my EC2 instance, I shows that cURL is installed:
$ curl --version
curl 7.58.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.58.0 OpenSSL/1.1.1 zlib/1.2.11 libidn2/2.3.0 libpsl/0.19.1 ( libidn2/2.0.4) nghttp2/1.30.0 librtmp/2.3

Because PHP is outdated, maybe it could be an PHP issue? When I check my PHP version, I shows I have the latest version installed:
$ php -v
PHP 8.2.1 (cli) (built: Jan 13 2023 10:42:21) (NTS)

But when I list all my PHP installs, I see that the top one corresponds with the one mentioned in Wordpress (7.3.33-9 ubuntu18.04.1 deb.sury.org 1):

I've also tried rebooting from the AWS EC2 dashboard.
CodePudding user response：
lel, you have php7.0-curl and php7.2-curl and php8.2-curl, but you run WordPress on the 1 php where you don't have curl: php7.3
sudo apt update;
sudo apt install php7.3-curl;
- you should consider upgrading the php you run wordpress on though: PHP7.3 went EOL 6 desember 2021; by comparison, PHP8.2 is scheduled to go EOL 8 desember 2025.
- it's very rare that you need any PHP5 version other than 5.6, and any PHP7 version other than 7.4, i suggest you install php7.4 and uninstall 7.0, 7.2, and 7.3.
