cURL request freeze the browser - php

Question

I try to request an URL width cURL, but there is no answer and the option CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT doesn't work.
I have no answer at all... I suppose that the server doesn't answer. I try to use the Chrome plugin called Restlet Client - REST API Testing to test the URL, but no answer too.
private function curlInterrogation(){
try {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, WS_L2_URL.$this->code);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, WS_USER . ':' . WS_PASS);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT, false );
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $result;
} catch (Exception $ex) {
Noyau::setError('Curl error #%d: %s', $e->getCode(), $e->getMessage() );
return array();
}
}
Each time i run my function, i freeze my browser for the domain (i can browse in other website) and i have to restart my browser.
With the CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT option, should the execution stop and return that it can not connect to server ?
Thanks for your help

Try to check cURL Php Manual if you're trying to check cURL info.
Nonetheless, just check Php cURL Manual.
Then going to your code (Check my comments):
private function curlInterrogation(){
try {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, WS_L2_URL.$this->code);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, WS_USER . ':' . WS_PASS);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT, false );
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch); //You've just closed the execution early before return
return $result; //Returning just the execution is most likely an empty page
} catch (Exception $ex) {
Noyau::setError('Curl error #%d: %s', $e->getCode(), $e->getMessage() );
return array();
}
}
Try this
function TestCurl(){ //Just function
try{
$base_url = 'https://www.example.com'; //Replace this with your client URL
$user_name = 'user'; //Replace with username
$user_pass = 'pass'; //Replace with password
$ch = curl_init(); //Initializes a new session and return a cURL handle
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $base_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $user_name.":".$user_pass);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT, false );
curl_exec($ch);
$info = curl_getinfo($ch);
echo 'Took ', $info['total_time'], ' seconds to send a request to ', $info['url'], "\n";
curl_close($ch); // <- Always put this at the end of the execution
}
catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
}
//Call TestCurl function
TestCurl();
