Status: Bogus
Bug Type: cURL related
Operating System: Debian
PHP Version: 4.3.8
New Comment:
Nope, it's not a problem with the curl version (as I knew it wouldn't
be). I upgraded to 7.12 and still had the problem. Turns out I had to
set the CURLOPT_VERIFYHOST to false so it wouldn't try to resolve the
domain name with the SSL certificate.
I don't know if you'd still call it a bug, but this would have been
much easier to solve if I had received some kind of error message to
that effect. I had PHP error messages turned on and the CURLOPT_ERROR
option turned on, so I should have gotten something, but I didn't.
Anyway, it's fixed now.

Good point Daniel, marking this as bogus. Upgrade first!

curl 7.9.5 was released some 30 months ago. Do I need to say more?

I should mention that this same code DOES work on a different
requesting server (FreeBSD 4.4; PHP 4.2.3)

Description:
------------
When attempting to connect to an IP address (not a domain) over SSL
using cURL (7.9.5), there is no response, no errors, etc. I get
nothing. When I test the same script with a domain (a different
server), I get a response as expected. When I test it with the correct
IP address over HTTP (non-secure), I also get a response as expected.
The problem, however, is that the server that I have to connect to for
the app I'm building does not have a domain, only an IP address and it
must be a secure connection.
I admit that I could be missing something, but I can't figure out what
it is and I've tested it pretty thoroughly under multiple scenarios.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$postdata = "POST DATA TO POST TO SERVER";
// use appropriate IP, of course
$ch = curl_init("https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx";);
curl_setopt($ch, CURL_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURL_POSTFIELDS, $postdata);
curl_setopt($ch, CURL_ERROR, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURL_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$retval = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
// print result for testing
echo $retval;
exit;
Expected result:
----------------
The echo statement should print the web page data from the IP to the
screen, and it does when I test with non-secure IP or domain.
Actual result:
--------------
Nothing. The echo statement doesn't seem to print anything. No cURL
errors, no results, no PHP warnings or errors.
