I've got a script that fetches a stream from a file on our virtual host. Its been working fine; but, yesterday they changed something and it no longer works.
Can you define "no longer works" a bit more clearly...
Error messages?
Just times out?
What?
$fp= fsockopen("www.oursite.org", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
I can use any remote site and fscockopen works fine.
Anyone have a suggestion as to how I deal with this problem?
if ($errno){ error_log("fsockopen errored out with # $errno: $errstr"); }
Here is my error report:
Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to www.restonrunners.org:80 in /www/r/reston/htdocs/phpList/PQ/PQutility.php on line 364 Operation timed out (60)
fsockopen() works fine with remote URLs and even "localhost"; but, not with our own URL.
I'd use "localhost" but, I need to attach some GET arguments and I can't figure out a way to do it. e.g.,
$str= file_get_contents(localhost?page=processqueue&login=Pmin&password=xxxxx)
Put some quotes on that, and http:// on the front, and it should work as-is.
Your own domain not working is a symptom of something else though...
Can you ping restonrunners.org?
What happens if you try to do this in a shell: telnet restonrunners.org 80 GET / HTTP/1.0 Host: restonrunners.org
Hit 'return' twice after the 'Host:' line.
You should get your homepage.
You may have some firewall mis-configured, or DNS issues, or /etc/hosts might be messed up or...
Many things *could* be wrong to cause this, but none of them are really PHP-related.
You are correct, the problem is due to the host switching to "load balancing" servers.
Required syntax is now fsockopen("localhost.domain.com", port, time) and
$string= file_get_contents("http://localhost.domain.com/path";).Thanks again....
