What PHP version is this? The dates from the phpconfig output indicate
you use a very old PHP version.

It's 4.4.9 (you clipped off the part of my message with the version
number :-). It's the most "recent" version of PHP 4. I'm actually
asking this question on behalf of our web programmers, who are pretty
far into development and locked into PHP 4 (they're using 4.4.7, but
I'm assuming they won't mind switching to 4.4.9). Now they need to
retrieve a resource from one of our servers via HTTPS.

Is it just not possible to make HTTPS connections from PHP 4 scripts
on Windows? Like I mentioned, everything I've read suggests that
loading php_openssl.dll will enable the https wrapper as well, but it
seems like I'm missing a step.

Thanks,
Jason

I've had similar issues with self-signed certificates and PHP 5.x. The =20
way I got around it was to install the cURL libraries and use code =20
like this:

$channel =3D curl_init();
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_URL, $yourHttpsUrlHere);
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE, 500000);
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($channel, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$content =3D curl_exec($channel);
curl_close($channel);

Not ideal, but it finally worked for me.

I did get it working using PHP 4 + curl, thanks to your suggestion,
but in the end I ended up switching to PHP 5. After doing that;
loading ssh_openssl.dll was all it took to get everything working
correctly with file_get_content() -- it will always be a mystery to me
why PHP 4 gave so much trouble; it *is* documented to support https
requests.

Thanks again!
