I have this code:
$jsonurl = "http://ipinfo.io";
$ch = curl_init($jsonurl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
$predata = curl_exec($ch);
var_dump(curl_error($ch));
curl_close($ch);
$data = json_decode($predata, true);
It is working great locally but when I upload it into my web hosting I have:
string(20) "connect() timed out!"
phpinfo in my web hosting says:
URL support enabled
cURL Information libcurl/7.19.7 NSS/3.14.0.0 zlib/1.2.3 libidn/1.18 libssh2/1.4.2
Can you, please give any clues on how to search where the problem is?
Thanks!
don't sure but , maybe your ip will be block from remote server !
or you need more time out , try adding this
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 400);
to your code
NOTE:CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT set to zero for no timeout
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT
The maximum number of seconds to allow cURL functions to execute.
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT
The number of seconds to wait while trying to connect. Use 0 to wait indefinitely.
hope these help
I'm trying to get HLS stream in other site, but they always return 403 Forbidden :( This is my function, it works well on localhost, but not in my server.
function getPage($url, $referer, $header){
$timeout=30;
$curl = curl_init();
if(strstr($referer,"://")){
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
}
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $timeout);
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, sprintf("Mozilla/%d.0",rand(4,5)));
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, $header);
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
$html = curl_exec ($curl);
curl_close ($curl);
return $html;
}
echo getPage("http://www.wezatv.com/dooball/assp1.php", "http://www.wezatv.com/", 1);
Anyone can help me?
Thanks,
make sure that your server IP is not a IP
use curl proxy to test ,
your link http://www.wezatv.com/dooball/assp1.php works normally on my server
Your code is 100% correct, I think the problem is your server blocked that request or the target server blocked your server's IP
Make sure your server doesn't block the out connection on port 80
If no firewall, could you try to execute the command "wget http://www.wezatv.com/dooball/assp1.php" to see can it download the content? If it also cannot get the content with error code is 403, it mean the server wezatv.com blocked every request from your server.
Some server temporary block every request if it found too many request in a short moment. So if you want to claw it's data, you should reduce the number of request, such as implement a delay
I am using curl function to parse data from backpage.com and oodle.com.In backpage.com, I am using proxy, but it not working on client's server but it perfectly working on our server. But in the oodle.com proxy is not working. Is any other way to parse data from oodle.com? My code is,
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$urls);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy);
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, $proxyauth);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
$original_file = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
In client's server it shows an error
Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when safe_mode is enabled or an open_basedir is set in
I am use phpinfo(); to check the settings , the safe_mod option is off but openbase_dir have value. How can I fix this issue? Any one please help me.
cURL + proxy noob here, having a hard time. I'm having trouble trying to retrieve a web page from a remote secure server via a proxy. Everything has apparently been set up correctly by a remote dev, such that the following command line instruction works and returns what we're looking for:
curl -k --socks5-hostname localhost:xxxx https://hostname/
However, the following PHP does not echo the requested webpage. Instead it echoes the error 'Couldn't resolve host name':
$proxy = 'localhost:xxxx';
$url = 'https://hostname/';
//$proxyauth = 'user:password';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_SOCKS5);
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, $proxyauth);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
$curl_scraped_page = curl_exec($ch);
$error = curl_error($ch);
curl_close($ch);
if ($error)
echo $error;
elseif ($curl_scraped_page)
echo $curl_scraped_page;
If the $url is changed to a public page, such as Google, the request is successful and everyone is happy.
The connection requires an SSH tunnel if that changes anything at all. The tunnel is open and functioning, as proven by the command line request succeeding.
Is there something obvious that is being missed here?
You need to set option CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE to CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME, which sadly wasn't defined in old PHP versions, circa pre-5.6; if you have earlier in but you can explicitly use its value, which is equal to 7:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, 7);
In the option CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE you need to set CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME option instead of CURLPROXY_SOCKS5.
In this case, the DNS query (for hostname resolving) will be sent to SOCKS proxy and not resolved in the local network.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME);
This constant available since PHP 5.5.23 and PHP 5.6.7 and cURL 7.18.0, so you can simply use it.
today I am trying to make a curl call to somesite which is listening to port 8080. However, calls like this get sent to port 80 and not 8080 instead:
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PORT, 8080);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://somesite.tld:8080');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$target_response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
am i missing something here?
Just a note, I've had this issue before because the web host I was using was blocking outbound ports aside from the standard 80 and 443 (HTTPS). So you might want to ask them or do general tests. In fact, some hosts often even block outbound on port 80 for security.
Simple CURL GET request: (Also added json/headers if required, to make your life easier in need)
<?php
$chTest = curl_init();
curl_setopt($chTest, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com:8080/?query=Hello+World");
curl_setopt($chTest, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8', 'Accept: application/json'));
curl_setopt($chTest, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($chTest, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$curl_res_test = curl_exec($chTest);
$json_res_test = explode("\r\n", $curl_res_test);
$codeTest = curl_getinfo($chTest, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
curl_close($chTest);
?>
Example POST request:
<?php
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://example.com:8080');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8', 'Accept: application/json'));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '{"Hello" : "World", "Foo": "World"}');
// Set timeout to close connection. Just for not waiting long.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
$curl_res = curl_exec($ch);
?>
Charset is not a required HTTP header and so are the others, the important one is Content-Type.
For the examples I used JSON MIME type, You may use whatever you want, take a look at the link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_media_type
Make sure that the php_curl.dll extension is enabled on your php, and also that the ports are open on the target serve.
Hope this helps.
Have you tried to SSH into the server that runs this and verify the iptables rules, and/or attempt to connect via telnet to the target server?
sh
telnet somesite.tld 8080
If nothing else, it will help troubleshoot your problem and eliminate network issues.
First check that you're able to connect using something other than PHP's horrible Curl syntax:
Chrome's Postman is easy to use if you're on your local machine,
else look at using (for linux users)
curl somesite:8080
wget -qO- somesite:8080
Once you've established you can connect, then you can go about the horrible business of using PHP Curl. There are wrappers, but they're flaky that I've found.
Both Curl, Wget or similar can be very easily configured to use GET and POST methods. It's not advisible, but for more than one complicated operation using Curl I've simply given up trying to configure PHP's library correctly and simply dropped to the command line.
THERE ARE SECURITY IMPLICATIONS. You need to take great care to ensure that anything you give it, particularly if it's from a form or an external source, is appropriately escaped.
<?
//Strip out any possible non-alpha-numeric character for security
$stringToSend = preg_replace('[^a-zA-Z]', '', $stringToSend);
$return = shell_exec("curl -X POST -d $stringToSend http://example.com/path/to/resource");
Your web server is misconfigured. The code you provided works for me.
Also, your code can be simpler. Just put the URI into the init call and drop the CURLOPT_PORT and CURLOPT_URL lines:
$ch = curl_init('http://somesite.tld:8080');
Are you sure that the server you intent to join isn't firewalled? And that Selinux is disabled?
Maby you can use
--local-port [-num]
Set a preferred number or range of local port numbers to use for the connection(s). Note that port numbers by nature are a scarce resource that will be busy at times so setting this range to something too narrow might cause unnecessary connection setup failures. (Added in 7.15.2)
