Hello!

I searched the forums and found that fsockopen() is enabled.
If it is, why it does not work at mine?

Here are my data:
Domain samp-tools.vacau.com
Username a5010206
Password i_wont_give_it_to_you
Disk Usage 0 / 1500.0 MB
Bandwidth 100000 MB (100GB)

Can someone tell me why it does not work?
I need it urgently...

P.S.: The script and the server are OK. I tested the script on localhost (my pc) and a friend's account (at another host) and it works fine...

fsockopen works fine on the server i am on.
So you can test your server, respectively the server you are on i attached a little script that will check fsockopen as well as mail. Just edit the email address in the script.

Download the file
Open it in a text editor and change the email to yours
Upload the file to your server
Open the file in your browser and wait for the results

I don't understand what's happening here, it shows that it's OK.

BTW: are UDP sockets also enabled, because I use them...

You could check for UDP being reachable by using something simple along the lines of this

PHP Code:

<?php
$fp = fsockopen("udp://127.0.0.1", 13, $errno, $errstr);
if (!$fp) {
    echo "ERROR: $errno - $errstr<br />\n";
} else {
    fwrite($fp, "\n");
    echo fread($fp, 26);
    fclose($fp);
}
?>

Just replace the IP/URL and the port

It show nothing. All I get is a blank page. No error, no responce...

I have also tried sending udp packets. I found that my packets were not being written for whatever reason.

PHP Code:

<?php
    $fp = fsockopen("udp://".$_GET['IP'], $_GET['PORT'], $errno, $errstr);
    if (!$fp){
        echo "ERROR: $errno - $errstr<br />\n";
    }
    else{
        echo "IP: ".$_GET['IP']."<br />";
        echo "Port: ".$_GET['PORT']."<br />";
        echo "Data to Write: \\".$_GET['d']."\\<br />";
        echo "Bytes written to socket: ".fwrite($fp, "\\".$_GET['d']."\\")."<br />";
        stream_set_timeout($fp, 2);
        $res = fread($fp, 2000);
        $info = stream_get_meta_data($fp);
        fclose($fp);
        if ($info['timed_out']){
            echo 'Connection timed out!';
        }
        else{
            echo "Returned data: ".$res;
        }
    }
?>

yourFileNameHere.php?IP=theIPgoesHere&PORT=thePort Here&d=theDataToSend

fwrite returns the amount of bytes written. Oh, and the above script is sending data with a \ on either side of the data. That is app specific, just remove those if not applicable.

just a reminder gaming script on 000webhost is not allowed.

[HAWK0987654321]

I almost forgot about this, but wanted to ask, what is considered "gaming script"?

(sorry, this is kinda another topic)

[lobrc]

When we say gaming scripts we mean scripts that are hosted on out servers which are purely for pleasure/enjoyment. The reason we don't allow these is because they use a lot of server resources.

So querying a game server just for stats is ok?
