PHP Curl Not wanting to connect to localhost.

[Matthew3360]

Hi,
I have been trying to connect to a local host using php curl. But I am finding it hard to do this. I am doing the curl get request from my web server and have made sure to enable curl. I get a 404 error when i try and connect. How could i fix this.

 $concurl = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($concurl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost/user-validation.php?somevalue=userid");
   curl_setopt($concurl,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
   
   $response = curl_exec($concurl);
   curl_close($concurl);
   
      echo $response;

Thanks,
matthew

Can you check to see if you have CURL enabled in your local PHP installment?

Are you using XAMP or anything similar for local development? What OS?
