[hudsucker]

Hi every one;


Fatal error: Call to undefined function socket_create() in C:\ProgramFiles\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\Newping\index.php on line 28


I get the error above trying to run ping script on abyss.
I did remove the : in front of extension=php_sockets.dll restarted the server
no changes. Below you find the script I try to run - searched on google could not find any thing else.Please help!! :(

Thanks Lawrence
<?
function icmpChecksum($data)
{
if (strlen($data)%2)
$data .= "\x00";

$bit = unpack('n*', $data);
$sum = array_sum($bit);

while ($sum >> 16)
$sum = ($sum >> 16) + ($sum & 0xffff);

return pack('n*', ~$sum);

// Making the package
$type= "\x08";
$code= "\x00";
$checksum= "\x00\x00";

$package = $type.$code.$checksum.$identifier.$seqNumber.$data;
$checksum = icmpChecksum($package); // Calculate the checksum
$package = $type.$code.$checksum.$identifier.$seqNumber.$data;
// And off to the sockets
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, 1); this is the line
socket_connect($socket, "www.google.com", null);
// If you're using below PHP 5, see the manual for the microtime_float

$startTime = microtime(true);
socket_send($socket, $package, strLen($package), 0);
if (socket_read($socket, 255)) {
echo round(microtime(true) - $startTime, 4) .' seconds';
}
socket_close($socket);
?>

Can you paste the output of running phpinfo()? Did you compile PHP yourself?
Also, according to the PHP manual you don't need an extension for socket_create().

You probably need to enable the socket-extension. Just look in your php.ini-file and remove the ; from the line where the extension is located. It's probably called something like php_sockets.dll.

Oh right, I thought the windows binaries had it enabled by default.
In that case, yeah, you'll have to uncomment the extension in php.ini.

If you already have, and it didn't seem to work, run phpinfo() once again, and look for where it reports php.ini to be located. Is that the one you edited?

If C:\WINDOWS\php.ini was the one you edited, then you edited the correct one.

Like aprelium said, try restarting abyss too.
Also, you could see what PHP does from the command line.
I.E. Start > Run > cmd.exe > cd C:\PHP & php -m . Does sockets appear on that list? (Also, if you don't have PHP in C:\PHP, change that bit.)

The specified module c

hudsucker,

We recommend installing the preconfigured PHP 5 package from http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/php5win.html . It has all the extensions and scokets are enabled by default.
