PHP/Apache error

[cole007]

Hi all,
Posted this query on the PHP zone but as it might be a server issue thought I would also check here to see if anyone could help me out.
Am trying to work with remote images in PHP but get the following message:

Warning: getimagesize() [function.getima gesize]: php_network_get addresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known. in C:\Apache\Apach e2\htdocs\map\i mage.php on line 4
Warning: getimagesize(ht tp://www.coflein.gov .uk/wales_thumbnail s/CD2003_645_013. jpg) [function.getima gesize]: failed to open stream: No error in C:\Apache\Apach e2\htdocs\map\i mage.php on line 4

[PHP]$imageSize = getimagesize($i mgUrl);[/PHP]
$imgUrl being the location of the image. Am running Apache 2.0 with PHP 5.04 locally on a WinXP box.
My prime suspects are:

• It is a problem with the Apache server configuration

• It is a firewall issue

• Result of running Apache locally

Apologies for my ignorance and thanks in advance for any response,

Cole

Wouldn't you need to have the following?

$_GET($imgUrl)

Are you able to ping the box?

ping *serverIPaddres s*

Are there other boxes on the same subnet for which the function works on?

I would check those out - make sure you are able to actually reach the box you want with the function you want.

I would consider a issue with security settings on the web server. Contact your admin first.
