带有PHP配置错误的arcanist arc帮助命令

Question

good day! I installed arcanist with:

git clone https://github.com/phacility/libphutil.git
git clone https://github.com/phacility/arcanist.git 

but when I'm doing arc help, I get error like this:

$ arc help
PHP CONFIGURATION ERRORS
You need to install the cURL PHP extension, maybe with 'apt-get
install php5-curl' or 'yum install php53-curl' or something similar.

but I can run this: curl " XXXX ", it's ok. and curl_init() also is run . with phpinfo()， I can see curl enable. But I don't know why get this error when I'm doing arc command. Can you help me? Thanks!

and system information:

• my php version : 5.6.3
• vagrant box on mac

You need to make sure curl extension is enabled for CLI SAPI (likely in /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/ folder). CLI and web (mod-php or fpm) configurations are separate, so it very well may happen that extension is enabled when PHP is used through web server, but disabled when you run in as a CLI executable.
