I've been trying to get this to work for a few days. Installing and uninstalling the module and trying to look through the files to see if there's any documentation for the module.

It installs alright, but when I turn the block on and try to view the new page, all I get is this message on the screen.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: curl_init() in /var/www/html/modules/sophosFlash/class/sfup.php on line 20

Also, when uninstalling the module it gives me the message that:
ERROR: Could not drop table xoops_sophosFlash.

So, I've gone into phpmyadmin and deleted it manually but I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Also note that I've tried to give it full permissions to see if that was the issue. *shrugs* i'm lost

Hi Mikey....

I'm having the same problem, although I haven't tried deleting it.... yet.

Hope we get an answer,

The virus flash module requires curl support in php.

It sounds like curl support is not available in your php installation.

put a file in the web directory like this

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

save it as phpinfo.php and access it like

www.(yourdomain).com/phpinfo.php

Look for a section describing curl... if curl is there... you should not get this error.

If you do see curl and it still gives you this error, please let me know. I will see what else I can find out.

Uh...what? :P I have no idea what curl is or where to look to "check it." Maybe I'm in over my head, but I'm a bit scared to start manually doing things until I get a better grasp on Xoops. Anyone know the steps needed to fix this? It sounds like its a common issue with a default installation. I get the exact same thing as above.
