What does your PHP error log show-up? (if anything)

I assume that the site you are sending the RPC request to requires it
to be delivered over SSL? (is it the very same site that worked in the
previous build of PHP, but not this one?)

Cheers,

It's not just you - there are "tutorials" and mailing list posts all
over the net that impart the same advice. So I'm not surprised that
you recommended it, you probably picked it up as a byproduct of
someone else's flawed recommendation long ago :)

As a Linux person - think of the absolute *last* possible root only
place that you could ever stick a PHP library into, with the most risk
to security possible. That is the equivalent of C:\Windows\System.


   /me nods.

   Makes perfect sense to me when you put it that way.
