HTTPS POST

Hi,

I need to login in admin side of site via SSL (Plesk admin side)

Here is a code I am using:


require("http.php");

set_time_limit(0);
$http=new http_class;
$http->timeout=0;
$http->data_timeout=0;
$http->debug=1;
$http->html_debug=1;
$http->follow_redirect=1;
$http->user_agent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)";

$url="https://server.com:8443/login_up.php3";
$error=$http->GetRequestArguments($url,$arguments);

$arguments["RequestMethod"]="POST";
$arguments["PostValues"]=array(
"login_name" => "login",
"passwd" => "password"
);

$error=$http->Open($arguments);
if($error) die($error);

$error=$http->SendRequest($arguments);
if($error) die($error);

$headers=array();
$error=$http->ReadReplyHeaders(&$headers);
if($error) die($error);

Here is the script output:

Resolving HTTP server domain "server.com"...
Connecting to HTTP server IP 192.168.1.2...
Connected to server.com
C POST /login_up.php3 HTTP/1.1
C Host: server.com:8443

C Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
C Content-Length: 32
C
C login_name=login&passwd=password
it was not possible to send data to the HTTP server

Thanks,

This is hard to tell. It seems that there is a protocol error may be due to a problem in your PHP setup, as it is only failing after connection.

You may want to try setting track_errors on in php.ini and change the lines 204 and 215 where it says:

$this->SetDataAccessError("it was not possible to send data to the HTTP server");

to

$this->SetDataAccessError("it was not possible to send data to the HTTP server: ".$php_errormsg);

That should make the class return a more explicit error. Just let me know what it shows now.

Hi Manuel.
Thanks for your time and help.

I did all that you said, but I don't get any error reports from $php_errormsg variable.
This massege is output from FlushData() function. I use the PHP Version 5.0.0 with OpenSSL 0.9.7c

Do you have some ideas?

Thanks,
siriy Sergei.

That is very likely to be a bug in the PHP version that you are using. Can you try PHP 5.0.4?

If that does not help I will need to access a site like yours to reproduce the problem.

Ok, thanks.

I'll do this and contact with you.

Thanks,
Siriy Sergei.

I tested script on 2 other servers with Apache & PHP 4.X. and script work only in one server. I'll try to find valid php.ini configuration for work your script.

Ok, just let me know when you have a server that I can use to reproduce the problem.

I got this output while posting to https website :

"establishing SSL connections requires the OpenSSL extension enabled"

what does I have to do to solve this problem. If I have to install any SSL ... how can I do it. Thanks in advance for your advice.

You need to compile PHP with the Curl extension enabled or at least PHP 4.3 with the OpenSSL support.

I am trying to send a xml to a https page wich requires authorization. I used your httpclient but only get the login page.
By modifying the test_http.php:
-I uncomment the require(sals.php), fill the user and password fields, specify the https in the url.
-I also did a small program to open a socket with port 443, I can connect but get only several blank lines (<br>) and the text 'null' from the site.

This is part of the messages (hope you can help):
