* Hi!
* Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\xampp\htdocs\TEMP\wordpress\
wp-content\plugins\g3client\client.php on line 68
* REST is enabled.
allow_guest_access is enabled too (changed value from 0 to
1)
* As you see, I’m running WordPress and Gallery in a localhost to try it.
* What to do next?
* Thanks!

* cheperico,
* Probably php_curl is not enabled. You need to activate it.
* Try these steps:
– Open C:\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini – Remove the semi-colon
in front of this line: extension=php_curl.dll – Restart Apache

* Thanks a lot! That was the problem.
* Now, a second one. Again, a noob one:
* **Could not connect to Gallery3: failed to connect to Gallery3 (http status code:
0)**
* Rest API URL: user:pass@http://localhost/temp/wordpress/gallery3/index.php/rest
* I’ve also tried G3Client in a non local host ([http://memoriabarrial.chela.org.ar](http://memoriabarrial.chela.org.ar);
Gallery3 @ [http://memoriabarrial.chela.org.ar/gallery3/index.php/](http://memoriabarrial.chela.org.ar/gallery3/index.php/))
with the same issue. My Gallery has an empty folder and 4 silly images.
* Any suggestions (other than to hiring an expert or giving up to WordPress and
Gallery)?
* Again, thanks a lot!

* Hi,
* you only have to specify the “user:pass” stuff when you use http authentication(
a password with username). Try to set the url to
`http://localhost/temp/wordpress/
gallery3/index.php/rest/`. Don’t miss the trailing slash!

* Oh yeah!
* Thanks!
* PS: How do I send you a spanish translation? I’m missing a few lines to finish(
for now is the only way I have to contribute).

* Hi,
* I’ve just checked by inbox, there is no email from you (or an email containing
an po/mo file as attachment). Can you try to send the mail again please?

* I have the same error with connecting to menalto Gallery 3.
* `Could not connect to Gallery3: failed to connect to Gallery3 (http status code:
0)`
* The URL is correct as I can test it directly within Firefox
`http://devsite.
mydomain/gallery/index.php/rest/`
* I can access and get an XML response that appears complete if I try to access
as per the test instructions from the [Gallery Wiki on Browsing Rest](http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:API:REST#Browsing_REST)
* I’ve used the Guest account (setting guest rest enable to 1) and I created another
user called ‘rest’ and tried with that Rest Key as well.
* I am getting a CURL error in the log
`PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [<
a href='function.curl-setopt'>function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION
cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in absolute_path/
wp-content/plugins/g3client/client.php on line 72`
* But I think this is a separate issue. I can change the setting on line 72 from
True to False and while that stops the CURL error there is no change in the ‘
Could not connect’ message. I expect that this CURL function is only required
for Gallery sites that are remote to the WP site but would appreciate a confirmation.
* I have also tried the [Gallery 3 WordPress Plugin](http://www.heiv.fr/projets/plugin-wordpress-gallery-3/)
from Heiv but I get the same error. Which suggests that it is not a plugin issue
as much as a server config issue, but where to look?
* Any help appreciated. I am using WP 3.1.2 Network config on Linux.
* cheers
Tony

* Hi
* Ok, I think I have this fixed.
* cURL is installed and working, but due to an oversight in my dns setup my test
box did not know the alias that I was using for the site.
* Testing cURL at the command line made it obvious.
`# curl -v http://devsites.
mydomain/mysite/gallery/index.php` results in
* ```
* getaddrinfo(3) failed for devsites.mydomain:80
* Couldn't resolve host 'devsites.mydomain'
* Closing connection #0
curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'devsites.mydomain'
```
* adding the correct host entry to the local server dns resolved this issue and
provided the correct responses.
Now for the next issue….

* Ok, finally working. The last piece of this puzzle was the open_basedir setting
in my server. This restricts cURL
`PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated
when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in absolute_path/wp-content/plugins/
g3client/client.php on line 72` This was showing as an error in the G3Client
settings page as `Could not connect to Gallery3: Found (http status code: 302)`
I was able to modify the httpd.conf for Apache and that allows the cURL option
to work for this plugin. Not sure what you would do without httpd access and
restrictive practices of some host providers where open_basedir is not optional.
