Req #68782 [NEW]: http_connect should provide more context when failing

From: andrew dot hoffmann at wisc dot edu Operating system: N/A PHP version: master-Git-2015-01-09 (Git) Package: SOAP related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:http_connect should provide more context when failing Description: ------------ Line 508 (master-Git-2015-01-09) of /ext/soap/php_http.c: add_soap_fault(this_ptr, "HTTP", "Could not connect to host", NULL, NULL); This is a generic error message issued when http_connect() does not a return a stream on line 502. http_connect() is a 150-line method that can fail for many possible reasons. More context as to why the HTTP connection attempt failed would improve debugging SOAP connections using SSL. http_connect() could benefit from having some of its work encapsulated into smaller functions. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68782&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68782&r=mysqlcfg
