#14740 [Com]: fsockopen() won't timeout

ID: 14740 Comment by: neil@fresh-toast.uklinux.net Reported By: l0cky@sn0wmen.fsnet.co.uk Status: Closed Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Win98 and Win2k PHP Version: 4.1.0 Assigned To: jason New Comment: I can confirm this function stalls when connecting to (remote) firewalled ports, on 4.0.6, it works fine on 4.1.2 and I will suggest my ISP upgrade. Both are redhat/apache. Question : You refer to the CVS builds having fixed this - which is the minimal build version for this bug to be fixed ? Thanks for your help. Neil Smith Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-10 23:56:07] jason@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-29 00:33:54] jason@php.net Will work on fix, should be available shortly -Jason ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-22 13:54:22] jroberts@forumone.com Note on the previous report -- setting an integer for timeout (e.g. 1) does not change the behaviour. It still takes 3-4 seconds without timing out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-22 13:49:59] jroberts@forumone.com System: RedHat Linux PHP 4.0.6 I'm specifying a timeout of 0.2 seconds, but the fsockopen() function is taking as long as 3-4 seconds with slow domains (I know www.krasnapolsky.sr to be slow). This example took about 3.6 seconds. CODE: echo microtime(); echo fsockopen("www.krasnapolsky.sr", 80, &$errno, &$errstr, 0.2); echo microtime(); echo "Error Number = $errno, Error String = $errstr"; RESULT: 0.39859300 1016822517 Resource id #1 0.04482100 1016822521 Error Number = 0, Error String = So the socket is opened -- it just took way longer than I intended to allow it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-12 17:13:35] jason@php.net The Win32 code does not set a timeout. The comment at the end refers to there being a problm on linux, which I could not reproduce. Winsock does support non-blocking IO, but is set up quite differently than BSD sockets. -Jason ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
