Some HTTPS servers not recognized as secure

[JimNayzium]

I'm using the secure site at https://tyranus.nocdirect.com/~bluee...nett/index.php as a testing site for integrating the Click & Pledge API with VirtueMart, and I get this error:

Fatal error: SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from 'https://paas.cloud.clickandpledge.com/paymentservice.svc?wsdl' in /home/blueeyed/public_html/michaelbennett/.../checkout.thankyou.tpl.php(61) : eval()'d code on line 311

Using the exact same file on another secure site results in no error, so I don't know if it's a php.ini issue, or if Click & Pledge just doesn't think the https://tyranus.nocdirect.com site is secure.

Testing with the sample file

Hi;

Sorry for the trouble you are having.

Have you tested the sample PHP code that we have posted with the server that has the issue?

https://developers.clickandpledge.com/WordDocuments/php1.htm

I like to see if the sample code works in the server that has the problem.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I started with your sample PHP; I have been getting this error the whole time. It appears to be saying that the Click & Pledge page is not returning the requested WSDL information, which is what made me think Click & Pledge simply doesn't think the request is secure.

I have tested the sample PHP on the other site, and it works perfectly.

Possibly a php issue

Hi;

I think the problem is with php and not a security issue. Our php programmer will be back on Monday- we will try to figure out what is going on.

Would you please send me the link for the product you are integrating with. We would like to explore the product and possibly create integration with it as well.

VirtueMart

Hi;

is this the product you are integrating with?

http://virtuemart.net/

What platform are you using? Joomla or Mambo?

Yes, that is the product I'm using. It would be great if we had a full plugin, but in the meantime I'm just trying to get the Sample_PHP to run on its own. I didn't just start with the integration.

It's a Joomla 1.5.13 install, but again, I'm running the Sample_PHP on its own, as a simple, unintegrated file, and it's not working.

Site link

Hi;

can you please send me the link to the form?

we have tested this on a number of platforms and have no problem. I like to test the form and see what the error is.

I really think it is a php installation issue (php.ini) but we like to test and see.

Click & Pledge API- PHP Example

It's just the standard PHP sample. Using the standard XML sample results in the same error I described at first.

Secure site

Hi;

I am confused..

Click & Pledge API- PHP Example

this page is not secure.

& when i change your page to secure I get the following:

Not Found

The requested URL /michaelbennett/clicknpledge/Sample_PHP.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.



Our API accepts connections only from secure (HTTPS) sites.


Let me know if I am not seeing the site correctly.

GAH!! Of course... forgive me. The secure version is https://tyranus.nocdirect.com/~bluee...Sample_PHP.php. Sorry for the mental lapse.

Setting in PHP.ini

Hi;

We may have a solution. Please see the following:

PHP: Runtime Configuration - Manual

Check your php.ini and see if the allow_url_fopen function is set to TRUE.

Please post your findings back to the forum.

More comments..

Usually, this error pops up in 2 cases, Please try to debug it to identify them.

1. Print the value before actually passing to eval() function it will not work if the value isn't integer or float.
2. Please be sure to file manipulation to ON or external URL reading functions like file_get_contents(),fgets(),fread() in php.ini for this you have to do the following:

You will need to set the allow_url_fopen setting to TRUE in php.ini.
See here:

PHP: Runtime Configuration - Manual

Please review & let us know what happens.

For 1), do you mean the values being sent in the XML? Because I used the default XML with no trouble on another site, and it only fails from this site.

For 2), I checked php.ini, and found "allow_url_fopen = On."

[JimNayzium]

Just wondering if there are any other suggestions you guys have. We still don't have our store working directly with Click & Pledge.

I put up a new page at https://tyranus.nocdirect.com/~bluee...JaguarForm.php that automatically submits a test XML form. The exact same XML and code is also at https://www.tripploans.com/JaguarForm.php where it works without any problem.

PHP Issue

Hi;

We have researched this and can't quite figure out what the problem is. We have tested this on various servers (internal and external) and can't find one that does not work.

The only way we can possibly find out is to inspect the PHP installation on the server. It must be a PHP issue. We don't think it is an SSL issue. Our system only allows port 443 connection so if you come through that port (SSL) then connection will be allowed.

Sorry we can't be of much more help.

have you tested the new FaaS service? It may be worth it to test that service also to see if that works.. that does not require a connection and is a simple POST method.

read more about it in the manual:

https://developers.clickandpledge.com/WordDocuments/formsasaservice.htm

we have not yet announced this service publicly but is in the manual and a number of companies are developing forms based on that service- it works and it is in production.
