Note Submitter: contacto at hardcode dot com dot ar ---- hey hey hey! the problem: curl_setopt($ch,FOLLOW_LOCATION,1); the error: trouble with open_basedir and safe_mode the solution: a function already developed by someone the solution n 2: the same function, modifed, works great for me.. <?php function curl_redir_exec($ch,$debug="") { static $curl_loops = 0; static $curl_max_loops = 20; if ($curl_loops++ >= $curl_max_loops) { $curl_loops = 0; return FALSE; } curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); $data = curl_exec($ch); $debbbb = $data; list($header, $data) = explode("\n\n", $data, 2); $http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE); if ($http_code == 301 || $http_code == 302) { $matches = array(); preg_match('/Location:(.*?)\n/', $header, $matches); $url = @parse_url(trim(array_pop($matches))); //print_r($url); if (!$url) { //couldn't process the url to redirect to $curl_loops = 0; return $data; } $last_url = parse_url(curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL)); /* if (!$url['scheme']) $url['scheme'] = $last_url['scheme']; if (!$url['host']) $url['host'] = $last_url['host']; if (!$url['path']) $url['path'] = $last_url['path'];*/ $new_url = $url['scheme'] . '://' . $url['host'] . $url['path'] . ($url['query']?'?'.$url['query']:''); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $new_url); // debug('Redirecting to', $new_url); return curl_redir_exec($ch); } else { $curl_loops=0; return $debbbb; } } ?> just use this function without de FOLLOW_LOCATION and should work. the problem was that when you get to the line where you return the data if http_code was different than 301 oe 302, $data has obsolete information or none. so $debbbb does the job. hope this helps someone out there thanks from argentina
