Bug #29374 Cannot post comment to PHP.net System
Submitted: 2004-07-25 11:37 UTC Modified: 2004-07-25 16:49 UTC

Description:
------------
When I try posting a comment to PHP.net's constructors and destructors section (php5), I get the following error:

Warning: fsockopen(): php_hostconnect: connect failed in /local/Web/sites/phpweb/include/posttohost.inc on line 29

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to master.php.net:80 in /local/Web/sites/phpweb/include/posttohost.inc on line 29

There was an error processing your submission. It has been automatically e-mailed to the developers, who will process the note manually.

---

Now, I would have just left it be, but I looked through the PHP.net site code, and since a socket is NOT being successfully opened to master.php.net, my message isn't being emailed to the developers, so I figured it would be worthwhile posting this ;)


In /manual/add-note.php, there should be a condition that detects "failed to open socket", and print a message appropriately, since the devs weren't really being emailed ;)
