Bug #16261 Updated: fsockopen() does not timeout

ID: 16261 Updated by: jroberts@forumone.com Reported By: jroberts@forumone.com Status: Open Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: BTW, socket_set_timeout is working fine for me after the socket has been opened. It's the failure to timeout on the actual fsockopen() that is causing issues. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-25 09:55:46] jroberts@forumone.com 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. Setting the timeout to an integer (e.g. 1) does not work either (although the documentation says it can be of type float). I reported this previously under bug 14740, but that thread was related to win 98 and 2k, where the timeout is not expected to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16261&edit=1
