[collectd] "simple" configuration in curl plugin.

[Pavel V.]

Hi, Rodrigo.

1) Please check if your _config_ has "LoadPlugin curl" line, not only
compilation options.
2) Check if log has more info (before "There is a `Page' block within the
configuration for" message)
3) Check your config carefully. Maybe problem is caused by a semicolon:

> URL "http://mysite.com";
