Install php curl debian 10

How do I install PHP cURL on Linux Debian? I tried the following code and got the error below

apt-get update
apt-get install curl libcurl3 php5-curl

Error:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I resolved this issue. My Linux box was unable to browse and resolve hosts names. After adding appropriate roots, the issue was resolved.

Type in console as root:

apt-get update && apt-get install php5-curl

or with sudo:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install php5-curl

Sorry I missread.

1st, check your DNS config and if you can ping any host at all,

ping google.com
ping zm.archive.ubuntu.com

If it does not work, check /etc/resolv.conf or /etc/network/resolv.conf, if not, change your apt-source to a different one.

/etc/apt/sources.list

You should not use Ubuntu sources on Debian and vice versa.

Whatever approach you take, make sure in the end that you have an updated version of curl and libcurl. You can do curl --version and see the versions.

Here's what I did to get the latest curl version installed in Ubuntu:

1. sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu wily main"
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get install curl
