Hi All,
I have a page that receives third party data into my app, xml data via
https post. This works fine and I receive the data as expected. The
issue I am facing is around posting XML data back as a synchronous
response to the post I receive. I am using the following code:
snip
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
// Print CURL result.
echo $ch_result;
}
The endpoint recipient says they are not receiving the data and I am
at a loss to figure out why. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Hi,
Try adding some error checking before and after the curl_exec() call:
// Check for an error
if(curl_errno($ch)0){
print Error creating curl object: Err Number:.
curl_errno($ch). ,Description: . curl_error($ch);
}
// Execute request
$result = curl_exec($ch);
// Check for an error again
if(curl_errno($ch)0){
print Error executing query: Err Number:. curl_errno($ch).
, Description: . curl_error($ch));
}
It may also be wise to increase your time out whilst testing, just in case.
Regards
Ian

I found a methoed with exif_imagetype() that worked except my webhost has disabled the allow_url_fopen due to security issues, instead they recommented me to use CURL and said that the exif_imagetype() is not a modern way to use php today. (what do I know)? Question: Is it possible for me to use CURL to verify the authenticity of a jpg file? ...and if so, how? Regards from Rango` Hi Rango, without actually having the actual imagefile at your disposal, it is impossible to determine if it's a valid imagefile or not. Curl is just a set of function which help you in downloading that imagefile, it does not in any way help you to figure out if an image is valid or not. Your host probably told you that instead of giving an URL as the argument to exif_imagetype() you should use curl to download the image, and then pass a LOCAL path to exif_imagetype() instead. You simply misinterpreted what they tried to tell you. The reason for this is that the curl library is specifically created to handle internet connections (and download, upload, post, etc.). Whereas when allow_url_fopen is set to true, then all possible PHP functions can suddenly try to download anything they want. This leads to a massive increase in the chance of getting malicious scripts to run on your webserver. Now, instead of opening all possible php functions to this problem, they only allow curl to 'open urls', and as such limit the potential problems. So: 1. use curl to download the file (but first make sure it's not too large) 2. then (still) use exif_imagetype on that downloaded (and locally stored!) file 3. remove the file from your system Note however, that exif_imagetype is not perfect, and will at times reject valid images. Though it doesn't happen very often. - Tul -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks!
Here is how I do what it sounds like you want to do.
Simply serialize your POST array, i.e., $saved_post= serialize($_post)and save it [a file or session buffer, whatever]
if you are instigating a new page; if not, you have the post array saved.
Then when you want to repopulate the form, simply unserialize($saved_post) and fill in your inputs.. etc. from the
array.

I am really struggling with this - I don't have a good understanding of how PHP and cURL interact. I already have the necessary dlls on my machine : How PHP and cURL (and Apache) interact: PHP is a Module of Apache (or Service of IIS, or [shudder] runs as CGI) php_curl.dll is a Module of PHP So PHP is a tick on the back of the dog to Apache, and php_curl is a flea on the tick. :-v Now, in most cases, like MySQL, you also need MySQL installed on the machine. So, possibly, you will need that new curl.exe ALONG WITH a *new* php_curl.dll DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MIX-N-MATCH THE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF DLL AND EXE!!! While it might work for awhile, that's only sheer coincidence that the particular functions in curl/php you are using didn't change between those two versions. As soon as you try to use a function that *DID* change, Whammo! the thing will crash and burn. You'll end up very cranky, possibly with a problem caused by a bad decision months and months ago, and you won't have any idea of the cause and effect relationship, cuz it worked fine for so long. I'm not sure you even need the curl.exe -- I suspect that all the functionality of curl.exe gets bundled up into php_curl.dll Now the bad news: You would need to re-compile php_curl, using your current version of PHP source, and the version of curl source you want, on a Windows box, to get the php_curl.dll you need. That requires A) having a copy of MSVC++ (Microsoft Visual C++) compiler/IDE and B) knowing how to work MSVC *very* well, to set up your environment the way it needs to be to compile PHP. A) is easy to solve if you have money. B) is not so easy... There may be a How To for PHP and MSVC out there, but it sure didn't exist back when I tried this, quite some years ago. I failed miserably. You may want to take your plight to the PHP-Windows mailing list. There are probably more people there who are actually capable of running MSVC and getting PHP to compile. They might just do it for you. They may even have the particular version of php_curl.dll you need available somewhere. php_curl.dll libeay.dll ssleay.dll But what can I download from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html I don't see any of those files there, and the windows package includes only curl.exe - where does that fit in?

And when I say good, I mean to say that I've already been to PHP.net and the list of CURLOPT's without explanation of how to use them is not helpful to someone at my skill level. Neither is the example on Sourceforge. -- S. Keller UI Engineer The Health TV Channel, Inc. (a non - profit organization) 3820 Lake Otis Pkwy.

[PHP] Re: cURL and POST
even more, if you want to use curl... I remember that curl can take post data from an input file, so dump the $strXML to a temp file then supply that file to curl. good luck, Samantha Savvakis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... HI, I'm using the cURL binary to perform a HTTP POST to a web page. I am sending XML data to this web page. The issue I've come up against if the size of the data that I'm trying to post and it looks like cURL is crapping out. This is the command line that I'm currently using: /usr/local/bin/curl -m 600 -d $strXML http://myurl.com/webpage.php -L -s $strXML - variable containing the XML data. I run this command using exec. The return code I receive is: 127. This means a fatal error has occured with cURL but that's all I know. I have read the detail about using the -F option. I do not want to POST the file as such, but rather the DATA in the file is I create a file of the XML. The manpage for cURL states: -F : To just get the content part from a file, prefix the file name with the letter . The difference between @ and is then that @ makes a file get attached in the post as a file upload, while the makes a text field and just get the contents for that text field from a file. So I've tried going: /usr/local/bin/curl -m 600 -F /tmp/tempfile.xml http://myurl.com/webpage.php -L -s /tmp/tempfile.xml - contains the XML data. This isn't working.I'm getting a return code of 2 meaning: Failed to initialize. I'm at a loss. I need to post this large amount of XML data to a remote site and don't know how to get it there.

[PHP] Re: CURL and multiple sites at once
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, http://foobarcom/page1html;);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fh1);
curl_exec($ch); //exec1
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, http://foobarcom/page2html;);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fh2);
curl_exec($ch); //exec2
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, http://foobarcom/page3html;);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fh3);
every time you set CURLOPT_URL and CURLOPT_FILE you overwrite the last
value that's why only the last page will be fetched
write a function that fetches ONE page and call that in a loop for every
page you want to fetch
something like this
function fetchAndSavePage($url)
{
// put your fopen curl code here
// convert the $url into a useful filename
$pagesToFetch = array (page1,page2,page3);
foreach ($pagesToFetch as $url)
{
fetchAndSavePage($url);
}
good luck,
phil

It would be difficult at best to answer your question without first knowing two things: 1. What did you expect it to do? 2. What did it actually do?

All my local testing has worked like a dream - but the cURL support on the hosting provider is partially broken. Actually using curl_init()...curl_exec() etc. on my box to contact remote URIs (both over HTTP and HTTPS) has worked from day 1 (with versions 4.0.4p1, 4.0.5 and 4.0.6). On the hosting provider, HTTPS connections don't work. But, I'm told the command-line version of curl does work. So, my question is - what gives? Are there known (intermittent) problems with support for cURL or have the provider's staff done something during the build of curl and/or PHP? Any help would be much appreciated as I really don't like the idea of palming off access to secure sites to yet another external program. Thanks for any information.
