#23131 [Com]: If fsockopen can't open connection, if(!fp) doesn't run

ID: 23131 Comment by: birkholz at web dot de Reported By: kangstarr at hotmail dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: On my windows-system with apache 2.0.53 and php 4.3.11 a call to fsockopen with the timeout-parameter seems to change the maximum-execution-time out the complete script to the timeout-value passed to fsockopen. I the connection-try failes because of a timeout, php raises a fatal error "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 10 seconds exceeded in test.php on line xxx" and terminates the script-execution. It should not terminate the script but return FASLE after 10 seconds and than should fill the passed $errstr-var with "Connection timeout" or something like that and the $errno-var with the corresponding error-number. On this code: <?php // This hostname should not answer on the socket-request // On windows-Systems any call to a non-open port will // produce a timeout if ($fp = fsockopen('localhost',12345,$errno, $errstr, 10)) { print "connection established"; } else { print "Error: \"$errstr\" [$errno] occured."; } print "\nAfter the fsockopen()" ?> it should return: SNIP--> Error: "Connection timeout" [123] occured. After the fsockopen() <--SNIP but returns SNIP--> Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to localhost:12345 in D:\htdocs\test.php on line 5 Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 10 seconds exceeded in D:\htdocs\test.php on line 5 <--SNIP The general error-handling of the fsockopen()-function should fixed to fill the passed $errno and $errstr variables instead of raising warnings.

When I go directly to scastxml.php the script works fine. When I goto index.php which includes the scastxml.php, the script only works if I set the fsockopen timeout to 5 or less. Can someone explain to me why this happens?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-09 09:01:42] kangstarr at hotmail dot com $fp = fsockopen("kang.kicks-ass.net", "8000", &$errno, &$errstr, 20); //open connection if(!$fp) { echo "No Connection"; $success=2; //set if no connection } Basically I'm checking to see if my SHOUTcast server is running. If the shoutcast server is not running, and it tries to open the connection I get these html warnings.
