I am having the exact same problem with WordPress 3.4.1, I have CURL installed and enabled, but when I ty to link my Zopim account, I get the same message “Could not activate account. The wordpress installation was unable to contact Zopim servers. Please check with your server administrator to ensure that PHP Curl is installed and permissions are set correctly.”
Hi,
I got the alternative solution for this problem.
Please go through this link:-
http://wiki.zopim.com/doku.php?id=public:plugins:wordpress:alternative
This is an alternative way to install zopim wordpress plugin.Please let me know if any problem comes again.
Thanks.
No go with the alternate install method, and also, I tried setting it up on another WordPress site we have which uses earlier version WordPress 3.2.1 and I get the same problem. This is what the CURL portion of our PHPinfo file looks like, CURL seems to be properly setup –
