I am trying to use sftp with cURL to upload files to my webserver, if I run curl -V on my server I get this output

curl 7.47.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.47.0 zlib/1.2.8 libssh2/1.8.0
Protocols: dict file ftp gopher http imap pop3 rtsp scp sftp smtp telnet tftp
Features: IPv6 Largefile libz UnixSockets

But if I try to upload files to my server using sftp:// for the curl URL I get this output after adding the -v option to the curl command:

* Protocol sftp not supported or disabled in libcurl
* Closing connection -1
curl: (1) Protocol sftp not supported or disabled in libcurl

To install cURL with the SFTP protocol I used these instructions here.
