curl follow location error

Question

I got this error message:

CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in.

safe_mode i

Answer 1

The only place where this warning message is printed is in ext/curl/interface.c

if ((PG(open_basedir) && *PG(open_basedir)) || PG(safe_mode)) {
  if (Z_LVAL_PP(zvalue) != 0) {
    php_error_docref(NULL TSRMLS_CC, E_WARNING, "CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set");
    RETVAL_FALSE;
    return 1;
  }
}

As you can see from the if-condition either open_basedir or safe_mode must be enabled.
