fsockopen doesn't report dns lookup failure in errno and errstr. It would be nice if this error was passed including a hint what is wrong with the call to fsockopen. Debugging of skripts using sockets would become easier.

Wez, can you please take a look at my patch?
http://mega.ist.utl.pt/~ncpl/php_7132_patch.txt

test script:
<?
$bogus = 'www.aasaaaaaaaaaaaaa.net';

fsockopen($bogus, 80, $errno, $errstr);
echo $errno, "\n";
var_dump($errstr);
?>

This patch also fixes the problem of having two warnings generated, instead of just one.

BTW, the script I've provided leaks with or without my patch (with zend mm disabled)! The problematic part is the simple "echo $errno;".

errstr is set, errno isn't.

It seems this is fixed.

<?php
$bogus = 'www.aasaaaaaaaaaaaaa.net';

fsockopen($bogus, 80, $errno, $errstr);
echo $errno, "\n";
var_dump($errstr);
?>
