Sending post requests via curl using a proxy. Is it feasible?

Question

PHP

There is a hosting, and on it a site. The site has a php script that uses curl - background
So, there is a request for an address banned in Russia. The request uses curl with a proxy via:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, 'xx.xx.xx.xx:xxxx');

But this method doesn't work. How to make it work?
Well, of course, the hosting itself blocks access to the required address. But is it possible to somehow ignore this moment?

Answer 1

Try specifying SOCKS5 proxy type in CURL

Answer 2

fiddler and go
