I'm using imap to get email.
My code as below:
Imap_open('{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}inbox', $username, $password);
I get error couldn't open stream
Could anyone have any idea to help me solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Possible solutions:
You need port 993, the SSL IMAP port.
Port 995 is the SSL POP3 port.
or debug it
Imap_open('{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}inbox', $username, $password)or die('Cannot connect to Gmail: ' . imap_last_error());
print_r(imap_errors());
If it still not solve the issue then past the print_r error here again so we
can better help you out further.

Can anybody help regarding this issue. The email didn't received through the imap_open function. I have seen a problem with this function.
imap_open($hostname, $username, $password) or die('Cannot connect to Server: ' . imap_last_error());
First url with port
$hostname = '{imap-mail.outlook.com:143/imap}INBOX';
Second URL with port
$hostname = '{imap-mail.outlook.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX';
I want to resolve this problem using imap_open function.
i have problem in IMAP
i am writing below code to fetch inbox emails
$hostname = '{mail.test.in:110}INBOX';
$username='name';
$password='password';
$inbox = imap_open($hostname, $username, $password) or die('Cannot connect to Gmail: ' . imap_last_error());
i am getting error
"message": "imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {mail.innovify.in:110}INBOX"
please let me know solution
According to the imap_open() documentation you need to provide a service flag if you are not using IMAP.
You are using port 110 which is for POP3, so you need to let imap_open() know about that by changing your connection string from
$hostname = '{mail.test.in:110}INBOX';
to
$hostname = '{mail.test.in:110/pop3}INBOX';
I have searched and read so many questions regarding this. I am saving incoming emails in to a MySQL database.
I am using pipe to script method and I have already set up those things and the file reads correctly when I receive an email.
The error I receive is:
$inbox = imap_open($hostname,$username,$password) or die('Cannot connect to server: ' . imap_last_error());
I am confused with $hostname variable, I have tried many times and I failed.
Normally my server is localhost for MySQL. I tried with that, and my server uses SSL. I used this localhost:993/imap/ssl}INBOX, but none are working. What is the correct server for that variable?
imap.mydomain.org:993 ???
Please help me to resolve this problem. I am fed up with this.
Going by what you have said, have you tried:
{localhost:993/imap/ssl}INBOX
or
{imap.mydomain.org:993/imap/ssl}INBOX
If that doesn't work, could you try providing an error output?
The true error message is Certificate failure, as mentioned by OP.
To solve the issue, change the function to:
$mbox = imap_open('{imap.maydomain.org:993/novalidate-cert}INBOX', 'user#domain.com', 'userpass') or die('Cannot connect to server: ' . imap_last_error());
to bypass validating self-signed certificate.
I just moved my app to the cloud hosting. I was using imap_open to access mails in my gmail account. It worked fine.
$hostname = '{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX';
$username = '...#gmail.com';
$password = '****';
$inbox = imap_open($hostname,$username,$password) or die('Cannot connect to Gmail: ' . imap_last_error());
Now I get an error Unable to create selectable TCP socket (1176 >= 1024) Does anybody have any idea about this error. I appreciate any help.
Thanks.
It looks to me like you've hit the maximum amount of open file descriptors. Maybe restarting your system?
I have some php code that I'm trying to use to connect to gmail using imap. Here's the code:
$hostname = '{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX';
$tmp_username = 'username';
$tmp_password = 'password';
$inbox = imap_open($hostname, $username, $password) or die(imap_last_error());
And I get this error output everytime i try to connect:
Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX in /var/www/PHP/EmailScript.php on line 14
Login aborted
I dont understand what could be wrong!! I've heard of people having SSL errors but this doesnt seem to be one of those. Please please please help me!!!!!
Edit: When trying to connect through telnet-ssl to imap.gmail.com i get the following output:
Trying 74.125.155.109...
Connected to gmail-imap.l.google.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
And nothing else happens, it just sticks there
I was just about to ask if you had a firewall up when you edited your question.
Your router or firewall may be configured to block port 993. You will have to open it to allow communication on that port. If the machine has a system administrator, you'll have to ask them. Otherwise, check the firewall software and/or router.
Try the host
{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl} without setting the folder INBOX.
Your code should be:
$hostname = '{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}';
$tmp_username = 'username';
$tmp_password = 'password';
$inbox = imap_open($hostname, $username, $password) or die(imap_last_error());
If the problem persist check if IMAP function is enabled or disabled in your server.
