This is a repost.
To summarise: My installtion of PHP is unable to resolve names. I can't use
fopen
to open a URL which uses a name, but if I manually calculate
the IP
address, I can read in the page OK. ( see example below ).
I need some tips on where to start looking to solve this problem.
If it helps, my config options when I built PHP were:
--with-gd=/usr/local/src/gd-1.8.4/
--enable-gd-imgstrttf
--with-ttf=/usr/local/freetype/
--enable-calendar
--disable-short-tags
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/src/jpeg-6b/
--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
and I am running PHP 4.0.4pl1 under Debian "Potato" Linux and Apache 1.3
