cURL error 2: easy handle already used in multi handle
-
I’ve had WP Mail SMTP installed and activated on a website I manage using Google
as a mailer for sometime, and just today I am seeing the following error:Mailer: Gmail
cURL error 2: easy handle already used in multi handle (see https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)This error appears every time I try to send a test email using Google as a mailer. I have several other websites using this plugin with Google as a mailer all functioning without issue. Here is the debug error in full:

cURL error 2: easy handle already used in multi handle (see https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)I haven’t been able to find any previous support requests or discussion topics for this specific error message, and I can’t find any information about what specifically might have caused this error message to suddenly appear in the first place.
Thanks in advance for any help troubleshooting this issue.

I’m getting:
ERROR: 8 - CURL error: easy handle already used in multi handle
But, it’s not related to a Google mailer, rather to the Infusionsoft SDK. It won’t connect to the remote server. Was working fine yesterday.WordPress: 5.4
PHP: 7.1.33
CentOS release 6.10 (Final)
curl.x86_64, version 7.19.7, release 54.el6_10@dchesbro is running cURL 7.69.1, so it doesn’t seem to be a cURL version issue. I updated PHPXMLRPC to the latest version with no improvement.
Hi,
I’m one of the developers working on this plugin.
First I would like to thank everyone for providing information about this issue. It makes it easier to pinpoint the issue and helps us get on the right track. Thank you!
Our plugin uses the “Google API client” library, which uses the Guzzle library. The Guzzle library is the one that prints out this error:
cURL error 2: easy handle already used in multi handle
A GitHub issue (“support ticket”) was already opened by another user, who also uses Google API lib (in another product): https://github.com/guzzle/guzzle/issues/2617
I’ve couldn’t reproduce this issue on my hosting or locally.
As you can see in the above GH issue, the original poster resolved his issues by contacting the hosting support and asked them to downgrade cURL + libcur. Please contact your hosting company and ask them to do the same.
If you have any sort of additional information or if you resolved this issue, please let us know!
@capuderg Thanks for checking in.
So if you run the Email test in our plugin you always get this “cURL error 2”?
Yes, starting sometime on 4/17/20 WP Mail SMTP produces this error anytime I try sending a test email with Google as a mailer. Switching to PHP causes no error.
Did you try to deactivate and activate our plugin and try the Email test again?
Yes, I tried deactivating and reacitivating, but it has made no difference so far.
As of this message I have still been unable to resolve this issue, but I am now working my way through the solutions posted that I have not yet tried.
Edit: I’ve implemented the CurlFactory.php fix posted here: https://github.com/guzzle/guzzle/issues/2617
So far this appears to have resolved the issue, though obviously modifying third-party code in this way isn’t a long-term solution. Until the root cause is definitively identified and resolved, at least I can continue to use this plugin.
