Call HTTPS page and get results back

jasonscherer

I have the need to call a perl script via HTTPS on another server. I can run the perl script manually by typing the address in my browser or doing a header command via php. The page returns results back when I call it manually. I need to call the page via php and return the results back in an array without going to the other server (website). Is there a way to do this via php?

Thanks in advance!

You can open up a page over https via cURL, look in the php manual for functions concerning the curl extensions.

Hi.

I'm trying to use cURL to connect a HTTPS server, but it returns me "Your connection is using a weak random seed! * Closing live connection (#0) "

Can you help me out with this?

My code is like this:

$ch=curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_VERBOSE,1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$params);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSLCERT,"multicert.p12");
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSLCERTPASSWD,"3I3I37RP52G1L15D8T8S");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

$data = curl_exec($ch);
echo "<p>$data</p>";

curl_close($ch);
