part 2: ----------- got curl 7.10.3 (latest version)... recompiled php 4.3.1 with curl. no errors. shows up fine on phpinfo... testing with:
$ch = curl_init ("http://moo.org"); $fp = fopen("http://moo.org/index.html", "r"); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); while (!feof($fp)) { echo fgets ($fp,128); } fclose ($fp); the file i get back is not the whole file. it comes from the middle or so down. i need this to retrieve xml files through https. tried one of those files without https - just http - got the last part of the file back. it cuts off somewhere...... i was really happy with fopen() and fsockopen() until the https came up... i've been stuck on this for the last 2 days and i really need some kind of solution... it's very frustrating that neither of those 3 options in php work as expected or documented with the openssl options..... i tested curl on the command line and it works fine. no cut offs of documents anywhere.... please help!!!!!!!!... is there any bugs known anywhere between curl 7.10.3 + php 4.3.1 on freeBSD 4.6? > > hi all, > > i have problems getting fopen() and fsockopen() to work over https.. > > here is the problem.. > > from the phpinfo: > > OpenSSL support enabled > OpenSSL Version OpenSSL 0.9.6h 5 Dec 2002 > > from php -m > > # php -m > [PHP Modules] > ctype > mysql > openssl > overload > pcre > posix > session > standard > tokenizer > xml > > [Zend Modules] > > > from the Appendix I regarding fopen() on php.net: > > Note: HTTPS is supported starting from PHP 4.3, if you have compiled in > support for OpenSSL. > > and from the documentation on fsockopen() on php.net: > As of PHP 4.3.0, if you have compiled in OpenSSL support, you may prefix > the hostname with either 'ssl://' or 'tls://' to use an SSL or TLS client > connection over TCP/IP to connect to the remote host. > > in a test file i have two lines of code like this: > > $file = "https://someurl.com"; > if (!($fp = fopen($file, "r"))) > > this produces an error but it doesn't point to any problem - like this: > Warning: fopen(https://someurl.com.......... in /path/to/file.php on line > 45 > > if i change $file to "http://someurl.com" it works fine... > > with fsockopen() the situation is kinda the same. code: > $fp=fsockopen("ssl://www.foo.com", 443); > > error: > Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: no SSL support in this build in > /path/to/file/... > > if i pul out the ssl:// part it works fine... > > now, i did read the posts on this list about curl. why curl isn't > mentioned anywhere in the documentation for fopen() and fsockopen() if > it's needed for those functions? > why would i need curl compiled in php if i already have openssl compiled with > it? > > the machine i'm using is a freeBSD 4.6 box with apache 1.3.27 and OpenSSL > 0.9.6h, php is 4.3.1... > > i did similar posts on other php lists but everybody's quite.. > > thanks > > > > > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
