Ubuntu – curl: (1) Protocol https not supported or disabled in libcurl

15.04curl

I'm trying to install a framework using curl but I keep getting this annoying error message curl: (1) Protocol https not supported or disabled in libcurl. Does any one know how to fix this? I'm stack!

Thanks

I managed to fix the issue after some hours of trying various options! Here's what I did:

Downloaded from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html.

tar -xzf curl-***.tar.gz
cd curl-*.*.*
./configure --with-ssl
make
sudo make install

First question

You need the command

sudo apt-get install curl

The install is missing in the command you use: sudo apt-get curl won't work because apt-get does not have a command curl.

First update

Also you want to run update first:

sudo apt-get update

And you might want to consider using this command:

sudo apt-get install libcurl3 php5-curl

It might also relate to the version of php you use (php5-common?) See here.

Second update

Or, to make it easier just use the command wget https://install.meteor.com | sh. Curl was used on earlier versions of ubuntu. It is not really an essential tool, but some tutorials use it indeed.
