I am running the following: PHP Version 4.3.4RC2, I tried 4.3.3 with the same results. MySql Version 4.0.16-nt Windows XP Professional Using PHP as cgi with Roxen. Anytime I try to connect to anything over TCP/IP I get an error. Below is the error that I get if I try to connect to an IMAP source: Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {mydomain.com:143}INBOX in F:\projects\phpgroupware\email\inc\class.mail_dcom_imap.inc.php on line 214 Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {mydomain.com:143/imap/notls}INBOX in F:\projects\phpgroupware\email\inc\class.mail_dcom_imap.inc.php on line 214 (the code comes from phpgroupware version 0.9.14.007) And if I try to connect to Mysql I get the following error unless I use named-pipes: #2004 - Can't create TCP/IP socket (10106) (This error comes from phpmyadmin during log in, if I change the host entry to '.' instead of 'localhost' the login succeeds.) I have the IMAP extension uncommented and the path to the extensions directory is correct. I can get to the IMAP server from Pike running on the same box so the proble is not the IMAP server. In fact when I look at the IMAP logs the connection never gets to the server. This appears to be some disconnect between the C-client library and the windows TCP/IP library under XP. Has anyone else had the same problem and if so how did you fix it? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
