Hi all,
I wrote a script a while back to query a game server using PHP, it has always worked untill i got my new host and they are blocking "loopback" so i am unable to use my scripts.... here is a VERY BASIC udp script to get raw data back....
Thanks for your time

I wrote a script a while back to query a game server using PHP, it has always worked untill i got my new host and they are blocking "loopback" so i am unable to use my scripts.... here is a VERY BASIC udp script to get raw data back....
Code: Select all
this spits out my raw data and i do stuff with it in another script, but this will not run on my host and they have said....<?php
$fp = fsockopen("udp://myip", myport, $errno, $errstr);
if (!$fp) {
echo "ERROR: $errno - $errstr<br />\n";
} else {
fwrite($fp, "\n");
echo fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
?>
fopen looks to be installed from what I can see but this could be being blocked or failing for another reason other than fopen not being available. It could be that the script is performing a loop back connection and this is blocked on our server so this would need to be changed to use a different connect to do what you are trying to do.is there another way to query this udp port to get my data from the game server?
Thanks for your time
