php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed

the666bbq

Hi,

I have a script that reads some data from an other page (game results of our team in competition) and it has been working for some seasons but all of a sudden it stopped working and throws the error "php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed".

when I do an fopen on google.be it fails, when I do the same fopen on http://66.249.93.104 it works. Is there something wrong with the name server on the machines ?

and I cannot use cURL apparantly so what are my options ?

name resolution fails (gethostbyname, gethostbynamel, dns_get_record,...)

what, why, who, when ... ??? plz !!

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. Why can't you use Curl (I heard that was the solution but haven't tried)?

That's why the url didn't work.

Kind of strange the ip still works.
