ID: 8440 Updated by: sander Reported By: david@php.net Old Status: Suspended Status: Feedback Bug Type: HTTP related Operating System: Debian Linux 2.2.14 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: Any news on this yet? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-27 22:09:34] david@php.net I don't believe it has happened since the Apache MaxRequestsPerChild was reduced. I shall suspend this until I have a chance to test more thoroughly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-27 21:56:00] sniper@php.net Any example scripts? Works just fine for me with latest CVS. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-01-18 20:36:58] david@php.net It's nothing to do with redirects, no. It doesn't return a redirect response. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-01-07 14:23:20] venaas@php.net The reason might be that fopen() doesn't handle redirects. I hope to add redirect support again though. To check if this is the reason, check the contents of $http_response_header right after the fopen() call and see if it contains a redirect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-12-27 13:28:50] david@php.net fopen("http://my-url/","r") - Success is the error returned. Attempting to use the filehandle return gives "is not a valid FileHandle resource", of course. A "lynx -dump" from the server at the same time the error occurs shows that the url is fine and the connection to that web server is also fine. Doesn't happen all the time, on every execution, but when it does happen is disastrous, any ideas? thanks.
