Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Network related
Operating System: OpenBSD 2.6
PHP Version: 4.0.6
New Comment:
We have this darn error occur once every few months; our site relies
heavily on fopen's to URL resources on our own servers (to separate
templates out...), and I have run into these darn errors with
absolutely no help from anyone on any forums. This error is NOT fixed.
It has to do with something that changed from 4.0.16 to 4.3.4 on
Apache 1.3.27 running RedHat 9 too. Please somebody look into this
problem.
Errors only happen once out of every, say, 20 times, and it always
issues the getaddrinfo failed warnings. Then, the warnings start to
happen more and more frequently, on code that has been unchanged in
months. Finally, a restart clears it and we go on for a few months til
another restart.
I'm not a C programmer or a Linux guru and I wouldn't know where to
start with debugging this stuff, but if someone could take a look at
it, it would be helpful. Navigating around these bug indexes is
driving me nuts...
Sounds like some sort of memory leak or something (i.e. the warnings
happening after quite some time, then more frequently until a
restart...)

I guess it is connected to the server - the problem occurs on some, but
not all the servers running php4.3 that I am using. Anyway it would be
nice with a solution that solves the problem independent of the servers
- or that tells exactly what is to be done with the server (I know,
this is not the place for such a request - but I don't know where to
turn to).

hello,
my php is PHP Version 4.3.4
i've exatctly the same problem. my server isn't conected by dialup, and
i got ever the message
"php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed"
when i use this line:
fsockopen ("dummy_ip", 25, &$errno, &$errstr, 10)
it didn't occurs with older versions of php.
this IS NOT a server problem, is a problem of PHP, you only need tho
make a search at google
http://www.google.es/search?hl=es&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=php+php_network_getaddresses%3A+getaddrinfo+failed&meta=
target "php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed"
and see results, a lot of people get the same errors.
i hope you found a solution for this :)

Okay. I identified the problem.
When apache starts, php or apache gets dns servers entry
from /etc/resolv.conf
You're using a dialup connection and when logging in, your dns servers
have been added at this later moment.
So there's a problem with apache or php to get informed that the
content of resolv.conf has been updated.
Confirmed for PHP 4.3.1/apache_1.3.27 so.
Temporary solution is just to reload apache doing a apachectl
stop/start
