curl_multi_exec() Error in admin gui

[apaeffgen]

I tried to use grav in sourceforge.net and infinityfree.com Both are free hosting services. In both services i have no chance to change anything. Both produce the same error:

Call to undefined function Symfony\Component\HttpClient\Response\curl_multi_exec()

A comment on FAQ of infinityfree.com:

The function curl_multi_exec() has never worked on free hosting, however PHP8 changed the way that undefined functions work, as they throw a fatal error now. If your code was working before, just removing the function and all should be good.

I just would like to suppress the message, if the code is needed for other purpuses. Or an Option to turn on / off the functionality for the curl function.

Same issue for me, tried changing PHP versions (tested with 8.1 and 8.3) but it didn't change anything. Latest version of grav and grav-admin (1.10.43) and the Reports page in the admin shows all green/correctly set up.

... and I think I may have solved it by going to Configuration -> System -> Advanced -> HTTP Section -> Remote Fetch Method = fopen (it was on auto and probably trying curl first before falling back to fopen)
