curl & xml-rpc

[finger]

hi, i've a problem with an xml-rpc-request via ssl in php4.
i got this phyton script, whichs works perfectly:

[code=php]

import xmlrpclib
server=xmlrpclib.Server("https://fkf:[e-mail]/")

print server.checkusr_xmlrpc("testusr2check","testpwd2check")

[/code]

but i've no idea how to do this in php4. i found the xmlrpc.inc-library and i am using it that way:

	$f=new xmlrpcmsg('checkusr_xmlrpc',
				   array(
							new xmlrpcval($user, "string"),
							new xmlrpcval($pwd, "string")
				   ));

$c=new xmlrpc_client("/", "www.host.ac.at", 80);
$c->setCredentials ("fkf", "XXXXX");
$r=$c->send($f, 0, "https");

all i got until now is:

Fault: Code: 8 Reason 'CURL error: SSL: error:140770FC:SSL routines:func(119):reason(252)'

does anyone have an idea what i am doing wrong?

thanks in advance

Hi,

try

$c=new xmlrpc_client("/", "www.host.ac.at", 443);

instead. But that might not be the problem. That curl error in most cases means that curl couldn't validate the SSL certifcate. This problem can be solved in most cases with:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);

In your case the following modification might solve the problem:

$f=new xmlrpcmsg('checkusr_xmlrpc',
                   array(
                            new xmlrpcval($user, "string"),
                            new xmlrpcval($pwd, "string")
                   ));

$c=new xmlrpc_client("/", "www.host.ac.at", 443);
$c->setCredentials ("fkf", "XXXXX");
$c->setSSLVerifyPeer(0);
$r=$c->send($f, 0, "https");

(if you're using phpxmlrpc available from sourceforge.net)
