RE: [PHP] fopen and http://

May be the path is not the correct ,just check with the Web Directory you configured to be and if its htdocs then I would say that its better to remove the htdocs from the path in fopen statement. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Williams [mailto:awilliam@mdah.state.ms.us] Sent: Friday, October 08, 2004 6:22 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] fopen and http:// Hi, I'm having a problem with fopen and http files. I keep getting the error: Warning: fopen(http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/series594.html ) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/awilliam/public_html/rgfaidstest.php on line 15 http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/series594.html does not exist Warning: fopen(http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/ser391.html ) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/awilliam/public_html/rgfaidstest.php on line 15 http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/ser392.html does not exist I have a text file /home/awilliam/public_html/rgfaids containing URLs such as: http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/series594.html http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/ser391.html http://zed/htdocs/rgfindingaids/ser392.html and I can bring up these URLs fine in a browser on the PC i'm running the script on. The following is my code: <? $filelist = fopen("/home/awilliam/public_html/rgfaids", "r"); if (!$filelist) { echo "error opening rgfaids"; exit; } while ( !feof($filelist)) { $line = fgets($filelist, 99999); $filetotest = fopen("$line", "r"); if (!$filetotest) { echo "$line does not exist<br>"; } elseif ($filetotest) { echo "$line does exist"; } } ?> But I don't understand why I am getting that error about failed to open strem: HTTP request failed, when I can bring up the links fine in a browser on the server running the php script. So can anyone help me out? Thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
