Hi,Adrian,

Thanks for respond to my question. Really appreciated!

I have the vanilla installed under my wordpress installation. it runs well by itself.

I use that link to set up the wordpress configuration in the Vanilla Forums plugin Setup page and get this error: “Couldn’t find a Vanilla Forum at this url :/”

I use “WP Vanilla Connect” to set up SSO and vanilla take the wordpress user fine.

and here is my cURL info:

cURL support enabled
cURL Information 7.29.0
Age 3
Features
AsynchDNS No
Debug No
GSS-Negotiate Yes
IDN Yes
IPv6 Yes
Largefile Yes
NTLM Yes
SPNEGO No
SSL Yes
SSPI No
krb4 No
libz Yes
CharConv No
Protocols dict, file, ftp, ftps, gopher, http, https, imap, imaps, ldap, ldaps, pop3, pop3s, rtmp, rtsp, smtp, smtps, telnet, tftp
Host x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
SSL Version OpenSSL/1.0.1c
ZLib Version 1.2.7

is that “AsynchDNS No” a problem? if it is, do you know how can I make change to that value?

you said: 4) Does PHP have cURL enabled? (just *having* curl isn’t enough, it needs to be in the copy of php actually running web requests)

do you mean I need to set up something in the php.ini file, what is it and how?

Thanks!

Hi, Adrian,

that doc refers to two possible causes of this issue:

1) cURL is not installed on server

2) server blocked/disabled loopback

in my case, none of these are true. I have cURL 7.29.0 enabled and my server have loopback info like this:

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1
RX packets:4159687 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:4159687 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:437219929 (437.2 MB) TX bytes:437219929 (437.2 MB)

it seems I have everything but I still get this error:

WordPress › Support » Plugins and Hacks

Vanilla Forums
“Couldn’t find a Vanilla Forum at this url”

any idea?

Thanks for your attention on this matter.

Bob
