[PHP] fsockopen connection error on IIS

2004-03-31 Thread Michael Egan
Hello all,

I'm working with somebody using IIS (honest - it's not me) to try and develop some web 
services whereby a site hosted on IIS is able to access data using a nusoap client 
with a nusoap server set up on a linux/apache server. I can do this satisfactorily 
from another linux/apache server but my colleague is having problems doing this from 
IIS.

The main problem seems to be that fsockopen isn't working from their system. We have 
tried running the following script:

?php
$fp = fsockopen(www.thehostname.com, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);

if (!$fp) 

{
   echo $errstr ($errno)br /\n;
} 

else 

{

   echo Success;

}
? 

But the following error is returned:

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to www.thehostname.com:80 in 
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\webservice\fsocktest.php on line 2
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after 
a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed 
to respond. (10060)

I've searched through a few mailing list archives and the only thing I came across was 
the suggestion that the client server is not allowing outgoing connections. Is there 
any way of testing this or indeed any other suggestions as to what might be going 
wrong.

I confess I feel I'm on extremely thin ice with this - I'm not overly familiar with 
nusoap and have no familiarity whatsoever with IIS. Any general pointers would be 
extremely welcome.

Regards,

Michael Egan

Problem solved. It seems there was a proxy server involved which was screwing things 
up.
