ID: 7880 User Update by: Alan@Halachmi.net Old-Status: Closed Status: Open Bug Type: *URL Functions Description: PHP_URL_FOPEN doesn't work Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-12-30 19:55:06] sniper@php.net No feedback. Reopen if this really doesn't work with correct url. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-11-20 11:45:08] jason@php.net Ya you should be looking up index.php as hholzgra suggests, but in looking at your truss output, It is behaving as if url wrappers was compiled out. Can you try this test? 1. Lets verify the source is compiled correctly. add --enable-debug to your php configure. a. Remake and make sure that gcc is being called with -g. b. do a gdb httpd c. run -X d. hit ctrl-c (it might take a while to catch) e. break php_fopen_wrapper f. cont g. open your test-script while its waiting h. it should break when it trys to make the file request i. hit n to step to the next line of code j. see if it ever hits if(!(options & IGNORE_URL)){ k. if url wrappers is not compiled you would get if (options & USE_PATH........ instead --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-11-20 10:22:12] hholzgra@php.net ooops, looks like this was to early in the morning :( but it might still be of interest what the output and error messages look like if you take your code snippet and just replace the '$fp=file($url)' line with '$fp=fopen($url,"r")' it seems like file() fails to open the URL but still tries to read from the file handle that is not valid in this case, so that 'bad file number' is reported instead of the real cause if failure ... PS: i don't think this is realy related to it, but www.php.net/index.html does not exist. trying to GET it will result in a 404 status and an error page showing some search results, you should try www.php.net/index.php instead, just to be sure ... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-11-20 09:54:13] jason@php.net Actually he is using the correct usage. File takes a string calls fopen-wrappers to open a fp, and then returns an array Alan, I will see If I can reproduce your findings -Jason --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-11-20 07:01:04] hholzgra@php.net $url = "http://www.php.net/index.html"; $fp = file($url); is simply wrong usage, try $url = "http://www.php.net/index.html"; $fp = fopen($url,"r"); $file_contents = file($fp); instead --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
