cURL PHP Extension suddenly stopped working

In my PHP file I have a line which checks that the curl extension is loaded:

if (!extension_loaded('curl')) { trigger_error("Curl Extension not loaded", E_USER_ERROR); die(); }

On Friday, everything was working normally. Today when I attempted to run the file, I get my error message:

Fatal error: Curl Extension not loaded in /usr/share/pear/jsinfo.class.php on line 23 Blockquote

I've tried reinstalling both cURL and the PHP cURL ex开发者_JS百科tension. I've restarted the httpd service and also rebooted the server. Nothing has fixed this problem. This is on Fedora 15.

Any ideas as to what could have happened/how I can fix this?

Look for the extension directive for curl in the php.ini.

There should be something like

extension=curl.so
