Curl Safe Mode?

[chewett]

I was using Curl and tried to enable redirects but get this error,

Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in

Does this mean i cant use redirects in curl with X10? If so are there other alternatives?

There has been no definitive answer, and i think that a few people would like to know this, along with me ofc

it's more work, but you can manually redirect your script based on the presence of a Location: header (set curl to output headers as well). Keep doing that until you reach the final location

It is disabled on free hosting for obvious reasons, no more explanation should be needed.

If you need to redirect, simply use header("Location: ./folder/location.php");
