A while ago I wrote a script for university that worked on my own PC, but when I deployed it it wouldn't work
It turned out that virtually nowhere would let me use cURL (thankfully a kind soul at one host allowed just me to use it for 2 months while I passed the module!)
I want to pull in currency exchange rates once a day at a scheduled time, but am I just going to have the same issue? I don't really want to start programming if I'm just going to hit a brick wall
If not I don't know how on Earth I'm going to do it without using JSONP on a webpage or something, which isn't very good
@jackjones It sounds like you are/were just having problems because the server(s) you deployed to did not have libcurl installed. If that's the case, it isn't a problem with programming. You just need to make sure the appropriate software is installed on whatever server you're deploying to. You'll either need to make sure libcurl is available by default or that you have the required access to the server (ssh and sudo) to install it yourself. It's a very common library and is usually installed by default. Good luck.
