include an http file produces errors even with allow_fopen_url = On

[rosewoodblues]

this particular line in a php file:

<? include "

http://www.prosoundweb.com/include/php/tn_link_top.php";

?>

wil produce:

[Fri Feb 25 14:03:03 2005] [error] PHP Warning: Unknown(

http://www.prosoundweb.com/include/php/tn_link_top.php):

failed to open stream: Operation timed out in /<actual place taken out>/index.php(15) : eval()'d code on line 36

I have allow_fopen_url = On and still nothing.....

I am relatively new to this and a bit confused since I thought that flag was all i had to set.

If this URL resides on the same fileserver as the script which is trying to include its output, I'd just perform an include using a filename. It's faster and uses fewer system resources.

The error you're getting does not indicate a problem with url_fopen. If that were true, you'd get a warning like:

PHP Warning: main(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration...

If your server could not resolve the address, you'd get a warning like:

PHP Warning: main(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed:

This is a timeout. I'd guess the destination web server didn't respond quickly enough.
