Treasury, Donat o meter not recording

CURL is a library for doing http type stuff. That's a really lame answer. They should be able to tell you immediately if fsockopen() is ok to use. Hint: get a new host. Smile

Hello,

first of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you!

Now my problem:

After updating to NukeSentinel(tm) 2.5.15 I can not access to the admin panel anymore.

I get this error:

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function socket_create() in /srv/www/htdocs/nuke/admin/modules/nukesentinel.php on line 22

and above mentioned scrip dies with

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function socket_create() in /srv/www/htdocs/nuke/admin/modules/nukesentinel.php on line 22

That may have something to do with 'Ravens Improved socket testing. (Thanks to Raven)' Embarassed

?

It does not work on my local OpenSuse system and even not on my vendor system. What can I do to get it fixed?

Hm socket_create is available for PHP 4.07 and higher. So it should work.

One caveat is that the web server must be running as root. My guess your server, as is most servers, isn't. Not a fix, but at least an explaination

That is what the server shows to me:

* PHP Version 4.4.4
* MYSQL_SOCKET /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Also, please see these posts that might help. We will look into this further.

This is dependent on how the socket_create function is being called. User scripts can also execute an equivalent operation. We (and/or Bob) need to look into this as I believe this was an issue before v2.5.15.

To test Fopen and Curl

Code:

<?PHP

// This script tests two methods of connecting to the feed server to see which are enabled
$data = getDataViaFopen("http://www.msn.com");
if (!empty($data1)) print "Fopen Works<br>";
$data = '';

$data = getDataViaFsockopen("http://www.msn.com/");
if (!empty($data)) print "Fsockopen Works<br>";
$data = '';

$data = getDataViaCURL("http://www.msn.com/");
if (!empty($data)) print "cURL Works (This is the prefered access method)<br>";
$data = '';

function getDataViaFopen($url){
$file_contents = '';
$file_handle = fopen ($url, "r");

if (!$file_handle) {
   print "Fopen test failed.<br>";
   exit;
}

while (!feof($file_handle)) {
   $file_contents .= fread($file_handle, 8192);
}
fclose($file_handle);
return $file_contents;
}

function getDataViaFsockopen( $url ) {
$file_contents = '';
$url_parsed = parse_url($url);
$host = $url_parsed["host"];
$port = 80;
$path = $url_parsed["path"];
$query = isset($url_parsed["query"]) ? "?".$url_parsed["query"] : "";

//if url is http://example.com without final "/"
//I was getting a 400 error
if (empty($path)) $path="/";

$path .= $query;
$out = "GET $path HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: $host\r\n\r\n";
$fp = fsockopen($host, $port, $errno, $errstr, 30);

if (!$fp) {
   echo "Fsockopen test failed.";
} else {
   fwrite($fp, $out);
   $body = false;
   while (!feof($fp)) {
      $file_contents .= fgets($fp, 8192);
   }
   fclose($fp);
   return $file_contents;
}
}

function getDataViaCURL($url){
$ch = curl_init(); // initialize curl handle

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); // set url to post to
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1); // Fail on errors
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); // allow redirects
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); // return into a variable
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PORT, 80); //Set the port number
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30); // times out

$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);

return $file_contents;
}
