Bug #74483 stream_socket_client fails without hosts entry
Submitted: 2017-04-20 20:28 UTC Modified: 2017-04-21 13:25 UTC
From: imacarthur at moditcms dot com Assigned:
Status: Closed Package: Apache related
PHP Version: 7.0.18 OS: Fedora 25
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
Warning: stream_socket_client(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home/vhosts/vitatree/test.php on line 9

Warning: stream_socket_client(): unable to connect to ssl://pilot-payflowpro.paypal.com:443 (php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known) in /home/vhosts/vitatree/test.php on line 9
errno :0 message: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known

If I add an entry in /etc/hosts for the site it works. Always works from the command line. It's only from within Apache I see the issue. Multiple sites [maps.googleapis.com, fedex.com, even google.com] have the same issue. The name won't resolve without an entry in /etc/hosts.

php test.php - works
wget //hostname/test.php - fails

Actual php version is 7.0.17

Linux ingagedigital.com 4.9.13-200.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 27 16:48:42 UTC 2017 x86_64

Apache/2.4.25 (Fedora) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips PHP/7.0.17 mod_perl/2.0.10 Perl/v5.24.1



Test script:
---------------
<?php
$context_opts = array();
$context = stream_context_create($context_opts);
$fp = stream_socket_client(
				"ssl://pilot-payflowpro.paypal.com:443",
				$errno,
				$errmsg,
				1000,
				STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT,
				$context);
echo "errno :".$errno." message: ".$errmsg.PHP_EOL;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
errno :0 message:

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: stream_socket_client(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home/vhosts/vitatree/test.php on line 9

Warning: stream_socket_client(): unable to connect to ssl://pilot-payflowpro.paypal.com:443 (php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known) in /home/vhosts/vitatree/test.php on line 9

and how is that a PHP issue?

you apache environment runs in some weird chroot and can't resolve DNS names - fix your setup

This appears to be an issue with your server rather than an issue with PHP.

My apologies. I had been following numerous threads from multiple versions of php about this issue, claiming it was a php issue.

The solution that is working is restarting the httpd service after the machine boot settles down.

Somehow it seems that apache reads the resolv.conf before the network is up and running and won't resolve names, but it's not consistent. Sometimes it works, others not. But so far restarting httpd after a boot is working.
