PHP - Fsockopen Vs Curl?

Hi Experts,

How can I check whether I have FSOCKOPEN support from phpinfo() page?

Thanks,

sorry about this . please can u delete it

HI,

I'm running the next script from my local host and the production server, and Im getting different outputs. Anyone knows why am I getting that error from my localhost?

    <?php
    $host = 'ssl://mail.companyname.org';
    $port = 993;
    $error = 0;
    $errorString = "";
    
    var_dump(fsockopen($host, $port, $error, $errorString, 30));
    var_dump($errorString);
    var_dump($error);

Local host output:

> PHP Warning:  fsockopen(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL
> Error messages: error:1416F086:SSL
> routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed in
> /tmp/test.php on line 7 PHP Warning:  fsockopen(): Failed to enable

> on line 7 bool(false) string(0) "" int(0)

Production server output:

Okay, I'm using fsockopen to see if a port is being used, But all it does it crashes the page if it isn't. If it is one it works but if it is off the pages just doesn't load at all.

Code:
<?php
$fp=fsockopen("localhost", 43594, $errno, $errstr, 30);
if($fp){
echo('The server is <font color="#0066FF"><b>Online!</b></font>');
} else {
echo('The server is <font color="#FF0000"><b>Offline!</b></font>');
}
?>

Can one of you amazing helpful souls help me out? Thanks in advance!

Hi, After a few years of having Barclays EPDQ payment gateway, they have now changed how they require the data to be sent to them - This has caused my site to stop working.   Now when the page redirects to epdq it is saying that the "Encrypted data is not present"   The original code for the fsockopen function was:  

$fp = fsockopen('ssl://secure2.epdq.co.uk'. $host, 443, &$errno, &$errstr, 60);
 
if(!$fp) { print "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n"; } else {
fputs($fp, "POST /cgi-bin/CcxBarclaysEpdqEncTool.e HTTP/1.0\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($params)."\n\n");
fputs($fp, $params."\n\n");
while(!feof($fp)) { $output .= fgets($fp, 1024); }
fclose($fp);
}
 
$response_lines = explode("\n",$output);
$response_line_count = count($response_lines);
for($i=0; $i<$response_line_count; $i++){
if(preg_match("/epdqdata/",$response_lines[$i])) {
$curlencrypt = $response_lines[$i];
}
}

    They have suggested this code instead:  

$header = "POST /cgi-bin/CcxBarclaysEpdqEncTool.e HTTP/1.1\n";
$header .= "Host: secure2.epdq.co.uk\n";
$header .= "Connection: close\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n";
$header .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($data) . "\n\n";
$fp = @fsockopen("ssl://secure2.epdq.co.uk", 443, $errno, $errstr, 30);

  and then suggested using this to align it with the way my page is coded:  

fputs( $fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n" );
fputs( $fp, "Content-length: ".$strlength."\n\n" );
fputs( $fp, "Host: ".$host."\n\n" );
fputs( $fp, $postdata."\n\n" );

  Can anyone point me in the right direction with this...?

I know this is possible to do the same exact thing with fsockopen, but I cannot get it for the life of me, any help is appreciated

Okay guys, so i have a status checker connected to a mySql database.
Now, what i want to do is have it check the status, then update the field in the table.

Here is my code, please someone add or tell me how to add the update mysql thing.

Code: [Select]
<?php
error_reporting(0);
include '../dbc.php';
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
        $id = intval($_GET['id']);
        //We check if the user exists
        $dn = mysql_query('select * from users where id="'.$id.'"');
       if(mysql_num_rows($dn)>0)

        {
                $dnn = mysql_fetch_array($dn);
                //We display the user datas

$offline='<font color="red">Offline</font>';
$online='<font color="green">Online</font>';
$host=(htmlentities($dnn['server_ip']));
$style=(htmlentities($dnn['style']));
 $port=htmlentities($dnn['port']);

    $fp = fsockopen($host, 43594, $errno,$errstr, 4);
         if (!$fp){
            echo('<font color="red">Offline</font>');
         } else {
$online=echo('<font color="green">Online</font>');
             fclose($fp);
         }

}
}
?>
Thanks, hope so one can help me

I found a pretty cool function that allows me to ping Pingomatic for new blogs that I have. Great. Now I can automate the process instead of manually going to their website. My problem is actually simple. Sometime Pingomatic is quite busy and is unable to receive the request. I want to be able to check the status of my ping request but I don't know how to get this specific field/variable? from the result.

Here is the ping script:

Code: [Select]
$title = "My blog title";

$url = "http://mynewbloglink";

function pingomatic($title,$url,$debug=true) {
    $content='<?xml version="1.0"?>'.
        '<methodCall>'.
        ' <methodName>weblogUpdates.ping</methodName>'.
        '  <params>'.
        '   <param>'.
        '    <value>'.$title.'</value>'.
        '   </param>'.
        '  <param>'.
        '   <value>'.$url.'</value>'.
        '  </param>'.
        ' </params>'.
        '</methodCall>';
 
    $headers="POST / HTTP/1.0\r\n".
    "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)\r\n".
    "Host: rpc.pingomatic.com\r\n".
    "Content-Type: text/xml\r\n".
    "Content-length: ".strlen($content);
 
    if ($debug) nl2br($headers);
 
    $request=$headers."\r\n\r\n".$content;
    $response = "";
    $fs=fsockopen('rpc.pingomatic.com',80, $errno, $errstr);
    if ($fs) {
        fwrite ($fs, $request);
        while (!feof($fs)) $response .= fgets($fs);
        if ($debug) echo "<xmp>".$response."</xmp>";
        fclose ($fs);
        preg_match_all("/<(name|value|boolean|string)>(.*)<\/(name|value|boolean|string)>/U",$response,$ar, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
        for($i=0;$i<count($ar[2]);$i++) $ar[2][$i]= strip_tags($ar[2][$i]);
        return array('status'=> ( $ar[2][1]==1 ? 'ko' : 'ok' ), 'msg'=>$ar[2][3] );
    } else {
        if ($debug) echo "<xmp>".$errstr." (".$errno.")</xmp>";
        return array('status'=>'ko', 'msg'=>$errstr." (".$errno.")");
    }
}

pingomatic($title,$url,$debug=true);


This script works and when Pingomatic 'is available' returns something to the effect of Thanks for pinging, you're blog is being forwarded...etc. etc.

When Pingomatic is too busy I receive the following result:

Code: [Select]
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2012 22:23:17 GMT
Content-Type: text/xml;charset=utf-8
Connection: close
Content-Length: 390
 <?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodResponse>
<params>
<param>
<value>
<struct>
<member><name>flerror</name><value><boolean>1</boolean></value></member>
<member><name>message</name><value><string>Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment</string></value></member>
</struct>
</value>
</param>
 </params>
</methodResponse>

What I'm trying to get in a variable is the '<member><name>message' result. In this case it's "Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment". This way I can try to ping the server again later at another time knowing that the ping was not successful.

What I've tried:

I've attempted to see if the 'message' (Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment) is in some of the variables within the original function:

$pingresponse = "<xmp>".$errstr." (".$errno.")</xmp>";
$pingresponse2 = "<xmp>".$response."</xmp>";
$pingresponse3 = array('status'=> ( $ar[2][1]==1 ? 'ko' : 'ok' ), 'msg'=>$ar[2][3] );
echo "Ping Server Response : Debug: ".$debug." Errstr :".$errstr." Errno: ".$errno."Response: ".$response;

But it isn't. My plan was to use strpos to search for the term "Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment" in which I'll be able to know whether or not the ping was successful or not.

Any ideas?

I have this inside of a method:
if($output){

$opt = fread($pointer, 10000);

if(!$headers){

$opt = preg_replace("/http.+(\r\n\r\n|\n\n|\r\r)/isU", "", $opt);

}

echo $opt;
}

one of my methods uses fsocketopen to open a file and start processing it. I then have this method which reads out the data to the page. as the file is being processed.

Here is the file that is being processed
Code: [Select]
<?php
function flush_buffers(){
    ob_end_flush();
    flush();
    ob_start();
}
for($i=0;$i<10;$i++){
echo "Test1: $i";
flush_buffers();
usleep(500000);
}
?>
when http outputs the data it also outputs the buffer size as well. I ran it on two files, and here was my output:

Code: [Select]
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
b
Test1: cats
0

Test2: 0
8
Test2: 1
8
Test2: 2
8
Test2: 3
8
Test2: 4
8
Test2: 5
8
Test2: 6
8
Test2: 7
8
Test2: 8
8
Test2: 9

Is there any way to remove the buffer size (the "8" and the "b")?
I basically went off of this and converted it to a class: http://phplens.com/phpeverywhere/?q=node/view/254

good day dear community,

i am workin on a Curl loop to fetch multiple pages:

i have some examples - and a question:

Example: If we want to get information from 3 sites with CURL we can do it like so:


$list[1] = "http://www.example1.com";
$list[2] = "ftp://example.com";
$list[3] = "http://www.example2.com";


After creating the list of links we should initialize the cURL multi handle and adding the cURL handles.


$curlHandle = curl_multi_init();
for ($i = 1;$i <= 3; $i++)
 $curl[$i] = addHandle($curlHandle,$list[$i]);


Now we should execute the cURL multi handle retrive the
content from the sub handles that we added to the cURL multi handle.

ExecHandle($curlHandle);
for ($i = 1;$i <= 3; $i++)
{
 $text[$i] =  curl_multi_getcontent ($curl[$i]);
 echo $text[$i];
}

In the end we should release the handles from the cURL multi handle by calling curl_multi_remove_handle and close the cURL multi handle!

If we want to another Fetch of sites with cURL-Multi - since this is the most pretty way to do it!
Well I am not sure bout the string concatenation. How to do it - Note I want to fetch several hundred pages:
see the some details for this target-server sites - /(I have to create a loop over several hundred sites).

    * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9009
    * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9742
    * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9871

.... and so on and so forth Question: How to appy this loop into the array of the curl-multi?

I look forward to your ideas.

hello i`m new here .
i need someone to build a php script with CURL and <iframe>
i can pay for the script
PM back or email me here icemerc@yahoo.com

I have the following code but i can seem to log into the page can somebody tell me what is wrong please

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$maindir = dirname(__FILE__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;

$page = curl_exec($ch);

echo $page;

// close session

curl_close($ch);

What exactly is cURL?

What are alternatives to it?

I am reading some code for submitting payment info to a Payment Gateway and trying to understand how cURL plays into this?!

Thanks,

I have a large list of websites that have allowed me to submit my website and description every 24 hours to there sites. I'm really getting tired of sitting by my computer and submitting the information to every site manually. I never understood curl and php dom stuff. does anyone have a easy code where I can

post a pre scripted text of my information into three boxes and it auto submits every 24 hours to the websites?

The boxes look like this

Code: [Select]
<input maxlength="255" value="http://" name="sPlugurl" size="20" style="font-family: Verdana; color: FE9999; font-size: 10pt; background-color: 656565; font-weight: none; border: 1px solid #0C0C0C" type="text">

<input maxlength="30" value="Sitename" name="sPlugname" size="20" style="font-family: Verdana; color: FE9999; font-size: 10pt; background-color: 656565; font-weight: none; border: 1px solid #0C0C0C" type="text">

<input maxlength="255" value="Description" name="sPlugdescription" size="20" style="font-family: Verdana; color: FE9999; font-size: 10pt; background-color: 656565; font-weight: none; border: 1px solid #0C0C0C" type="text">

<input type="submit" value="Dump" style="background-color: #656565; font-family: Verdana; color: &lt;? echo ;?&gt;; font-size: 10pt; border: 1px solid #0C0C0C">
the php script would auto fill out  the value of the first 3 boxes with my info and then the program would submit it to there forum.

I looked on google but nothing I found I can figure out?

I am trying to send the following curl command using PHP but I have so far been unsuccessful, any help would be appreciated :-)


curl -u 1fd7b89be6f3533d7:X -H  'Content-Type:application/xml' -d '<message><body>Test  using the API</body></message>' http://someurl.com
