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

Try http://us2.php.net/curl and/or change hosts.

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.

http://www.php.net/socket_create
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;


}





?>
