Hi,
I'm growing rather desperate about this issue that's been causing me several sleepless
nights already.
All I want is to be able to use IMAP to access POP3 mailboxes with PHP4 (4.0.5). I had
no trouble
compiling both imap and PHP4, and actually I also compiled PHP3 with the same IMAP
library. My little
test script (see below) works fine on PHP3, but on PHP4 I get the following
message(s), being the first
the most relevant one:
Warning: Couldn't open stream {mail.host.tld/pop3:110}INBOX in
/usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line
6
Warning: Unable to find stream pointer in /usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line
7
Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in
/usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line 8
Warning: Unable to find stream pointer in /usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line
10
The code is ok, as far as I can tell (and I'm not a newbie anymore):
<html>
<head><title>Mail Test</title></head>
<body>
<?php
$host = "mail.host.tld/pop3";
$mbox = imap_open ("\{$host:110}INBOX", "test", "test");
$aHeaders = imap_headers( $mbox );
while( list( $Key, $Val ) = each( $aHeaders ) )
echo $Val . "<br>";
imap_close( $mbox );
?>
</body>
</html>
The $host in the imap_open line has already been replaced by the literal string, I
have left out the \ before
the {, everything in vain.
I use apache 1.3.20, PHP 4.0.5, the IMAP snapshot from a couple of days ago and I
configured PHP like
this:
'./configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-gd=yes' '--with-xpm-dir'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-
ttf=/usr/src/freetype-1.3.1' '--with-zlib' '--with-xml' '--with-ftp'
'--with-mcal=../libmcal' '--with-imap' '--with-
sybase=/opt/sybase-11.9.2' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local'
'--with-mhash' '--with-config-file-
path=/etc/httpd/conf' '--enable-versioning' '--enable-track-vars'
according to phpinfo().
I tried to track down the problem by inserting messages in various PHP and IMAP source
code places. I
couldn't get beyond the call to tcp_open in IMAP's mail_open function. It seems that
this tcp_open is not
being called by PHP4, while PHP3 calls it perfectly. I think maybe the tcp driver is
not loaded, or so.
The pop3 driver seems to be ok.
I really don't know, I'm just speculating here. But what could be the problem? Is
there anything I may
have missed during configure and compile of PHP4 that differs from the PHP3 procedure?
Please, you PHP makers out there, try to help me. I would really appreciate this. If
I can't solve this
problem, I can't port my project to PHP4.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings,
Michael Heumann.
