[PHP] file_get_contents() failing on CentOS.
Hi.
I'm trying to help a friend with a CentOS setup.
He's installed PHP and SOAP using yum install php-soap and he is
having problems.
I assisted in the developed the php script he is using and it is
working fine on Windows.
In testing, we can do ...
# wget http://www.php.net
but not ...
# php -r "echo file_get_contents('http://www.php.net');"
PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.php.net): failed to open
stream: HTTP request failed! in Command line code on line 1
I've checked allow_url_fopen and that is set to 1
As a test ...
# php -d allow_url_fopen=1 -r "echo file_get_contents('http://www.php.net');"
PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.php.net): failed to open
stream: HTTP request failed! in Command line code on line 1
(This works fine on windows system)
# php -d allow_url_fopen=0 -r "echo file_get_contents('http://www.php.net');"
PHP Warning: file_get_contents(): URL file-access is disabled in the
server configuration in Command line code on line 1
PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.php.net): failed to open
stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in Command line code on
line 1
Neither will actually return the contents.
Considering wget works and PHP doesn't _AND_ that this is linux, I'm lost.
Wireshark shoes no communication at all when PHP is used to try and
get to www.php.net, but it does show everything accurately when using
wget.
I've got the output of php -i and of the debug data from wget.
So. Any pointers, suggestions, things to read/try/etc.
Regards,
Richard.

[PHP] version_compare
I found this code...
if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.2.0', '>=')) {
$text=filter_var($text, FILTER_SANITIZE_URL);
}
...to be questionable.
Under what conditions would version_compare() return true, yet the filter_var()
be undefined? Because that's what is happening.
Thank you.

If your PHP was compiled without support for the filter functions? I
assume when you say that filter_var() is "undefined" you mean that the
software returns a message that the function itself cannot be found?

Personally, I would change that to be
if ( function_exists('filter_var') ) {
$text = filter_var($text, FILTER_SANITIZE_URL);
}

So would I:

I understand that. There was a second, more relevant, part to my question.
I have found the version of PHP used as reported in the HTTP header responses.
filter_var() is undefined in PHP/5.2.4_p20070914-pl2-gentoo

As Paul pointed out, maybe your version of PHP was built without the filter_var
function compiled in.

However, it looks like it's been a while since a new release: http://www.phpdoc.org/news.php?id=57 My code makes extensive use of namespaces and other new features found within PHP 5.3, and these don't appear to be supported within phpDocumentor.

[PHP] filter_var (was: Re: [PHP] version_compare)
>As Paul pointed out, maybe your version of PHP was built without the >filter_var function compiled in. This is what I have learned about PHP with filter_var() as an illustrative point: Many people who provide elaborations on PHP make too many assumptions or are blatently and woefully incomplete. Statements such as "PHP 5.2.0 or higher is required for this to work" is misleading. The PHP online manual pages for respective functions make no distinction that any particular function or capability is an optional include for a build - considered an "extension" as opposed to, what?, "native code"? I have also learned that when coding my own scripts, I must not only read the manual page for that function, but also any metadata for it and its group, such as the Introduction page, Installing/Configuring, etc. And where, when I finally find it, if I can reason out that I should be looking for it, it may say "The filter extension is enabled by default as of PHP 5.2.0", that I need to be reasonably cautious because some idiot may build PHP 5.2.0+ without this extension. Are the array_*() functions also an optional extension? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: Which PHP 5.3 documentation generators have you found?
While we don't use any 5.3 specific features such as namespaces yet, we set up our continuous integration system to use Doxygen. It runs significantly faster than phpDocumentor, though we put zero effort into tuning either system.

Thanks for that. I've passed the details on.
OOI, wget uses HTTP/1.1 ...
---request begin---
GET / HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Wget/1.11.4 Red Hat modified
Accept: */*
Host: www.php.net
Connection: Keep-Alive
The bug report certainly matches the behaviour.

Not sure if it it is a typo above, are you actually passing
$msgContent in the function above? If it is a global variable, you
would need to add a 'global' declaration:
function ProcessForm($values)
{
global $msgContent;
mail('myemail:domain.com', 'Website Enquiry', $msgContent, "From:
\"{$values['name']}\" <{$values['emailaddress']}>\r\n");
.
.
.
}
Also try adding CRLF sequence at the end of the header line as shown above.

Out of PHPDocumentor and Doxygen, Doxygen seemed to be the closest as it had namespace support already for other languages. only the tokens needed changing. It uses Flex /Bison as the lexer and scanner so it's pretty flexible. YMMV.
