#18609 [NEW]: ImageCreateFromJPEG can't fetch from a URL

From: midg3t@mail.com Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.2.2 PHP Bug Type: GD related Bug description: ImageCreateFromJPEG can't fetch from a URL This bug has been posted once before, but the discussion was closed due to inactivity. Using GD "1.6.2 or higher" or GD 2 (the versions with PHP 4.2.2), ImageCreateFromJPEG() produces an error when trying to fetch an image from a URL. It works fine for grabbing local files. I am using the PHP SAPI module for Apache 1.3.26. To generate the error, just use the function imagecreatefromjpeg("http://www.somesite.com/image.jpg"); It returns the following error: Warning: imagecreatefromjpeg: Unable to open 'http://www.someserver.com/image.jpg' for reading in c:\folder\file.php on line 53 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18609&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=18609&r=globals
