SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed <?php error_reporting(E_ALL); $file_contents = "https://google.nl"; $contextOptions = array( 'ssl' => array( 'verify_peer' => false, ) ); $context = stream_context_create($contextOptions); $body = file_get_contents($file_contents, 0, $context); var_dump($body); ?> If I set verify_peer to false, it works. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-02-04 16:08:42] rasmus@php.net That's still not enough details. Your example works for us. Try it on a different server. This is most likely a local network configuration issue. Like a firewall blocking outbound http requests. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-02-04 12:06:09] everdij at gmail dot com Not working (gives time out) $file_contents = "https://google.nl"; $body = file_get_contents($file_contents); var_dump($body); Not working gives timeout $file_contents = "https://google.nl"; $body = file_get_contents($file_contents,null,null,null,null); var_dump($body); Works $file_contents = "../local_file.txt"; $body = file_get_contents($file_contents); var_dump($body); Curl works! so looks like nothing to do with network setup ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-02-03 15:07:44] requinix@php.net Not enough information was provided for us to be able to handle this bug.
