    Help with Fatal error: fopen(): Unable to find the wrapper "https" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?

    Hi all i have used a script that i downloaded and uses the
    fopen($url,'r') ; function to access a url to retrieve data and i get
    this error

    Fatal error: fopen(): Unable to find the wrapper "https" - did you
    forget to enable it when you configured PHP?

    i checked the 'allow_url_fope n = On' in php.ini and it is set to On,
    and still it didn't work

    Any ideas plz??

    Thank you

      You have to use PHP 4.3 + and have OpenSSL .

              change the line
              ;extension=php_ openssl.dll to extension=php_o penssl.dll
              in php.ini file.
              simply remove ";" char.

              if it wont work. you can create ssl:// connection with fsockopen()
              function then you can use fopen().

                      Looks like either a lookup problem or potentially a known bug in earlier
                      versions of PHP. If using the IP address of the host fails in the same
                      manner, see if you can capture the full failure, and compare with
                      similar reports on bugs.php.net.

                      Google for "php_network_ge taddresses".
