My host doesn't support cURL!

Hi,

I am trying to install Zen Cart as an addition to an existing site and I've just found out that My Web host does not and will not support cURL!

Does this mean I cannot install Zen Cart?

Thanks

Zencart itself will install and work fine without cURL, but there are several of the addon modules that do require it.

Personally, I'd be looking for another host. Those that don't support cURL are in the minority and probably aren't suitable for eCommerce sites anyway.

Cheers

If you want to take payments, you will need cURL support.
