    When compiling php from source for nginx web server, i get error

    checking for cURL support... yes
    checking if we should use cURL for url streams... yes
    checking for cURL in default path... not found
    configure: error: Please reinstall the libcurl distribution -
        easy.h should be in /include/curl/
    
    

    On checking, found curl-devel not installed

    [root@vps1 php-5.2.8]# yum list|grep curl
    curl.x86_64                              7.15.5-2.el5           installed
    curl.i386                                7.15.5-2.el5           installed
    curl-devel.x86_64                        7.15.5-2.el5           base
    curl-devel.i386                          7.15.5-2.el5           base
    [root@vps1 php-5.2.8]#
    

    The problem is fixed by installing curl-devel

    yum -y install curl-devel
