Bug #64402 [Opn]: Cannot open IMAP connections with SSL

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64402&edit=1 ID: 64402 User updated by: craig at craigfrancis dot co dot uk Reported by: craig at craigfrancis dot co dot uk Summary: Cannot open IMAP connections with SSL Status: Open Type: Bug Package: IMAP related Operating System: RedHat/CentOS release 6.4 PHP Version: 5.3.22 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Sorry, probably not a bug... the password was being stored in a plain text file, and ended with a newline. I presume that because the password then included a newline character, this somehow caused the "Too many arguments" error. However, it is still kind of a bug, because the password should probably be escaped, or a more appropriate error returned.

When opening a connection with the /ssl flag, it returns "Too many arguments provided". To reproduce: <?php $mbox = imap_open('{imap.domain.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX', $user, $pass); print_r(imap_errors()); ?> This results in the error message "Too many arguments provided". Removing the "/ssl" flag: <?php $mbox = imap_open('{imap.domain.com:993/imap}INBOX', $user, $pass); print_r(imap_errors()); ?> Still results in a failed connection (the remote server requires an ssl connection), but this kind of fixes the issue. PHP info shows: IMAP c-Client Version => 2007e SSL Support => enabled Kerberos Support => enabled Which confirms that SSL support is enabled, and the configure command includes: --with-imap=shared --with-imap-ssl Do you know how I can debug further? For reference a bug report has been raised on RedHat bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919506 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64402&edit=1
