Thread:Project:Support desk/Help cannot upload images

Hi when I try and upload an image I get the following error: Error setting curl options. Backtrace: I have

 * 1) reviewed all steps in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads
 * 2) * directory permissions are all ok.
 * 3) * phpinfo is showing
 * 4) * Not sure is this is my issue, but I do not know how to change Configure Command to --with-curl ?
 * 5) * I can see the curl.so in the modules directory
 * 6) searched google for answers and the support desk

I am running my wiki on AWS Linux server
