You seem to have a server issue. Have you spoken to your hosts about it?
Hrm,
I am hosting the blogs myself. So yes? 🙂
Problems of this kind are sometimes caused by a failure to compile PHP with cUrl. Have you looked into that?
Hi,
Yes, Curl is working as it should. (I think) Not really sure how to test it out?
A thing to note is – The server is hosting around 20 blogs or so, all have the same issues. It started about 12 days ago. And the last time i was even connected to the server was about 4 months ago.
Im hosting around 50 blogs in total, on 5 different servers, and its only THIS server that is acting up. So im pretty sure its something in the server itself, I just cant figure out what it is.
What’s the PHP max-execution time set to?
Try increasing it to 60 and see what happens.
I might try trouble-shooting by first taking a look at a phpinfo file just to re-confirm that cURL and OpenSSL support really are both enabled in PHP. Then you could compare that info to the output of a phpinfo file from one of your other servers where things seem to be working properly, just to see if there are any major differences that jump off the page at you.
You could also install the Core Control plugin and take a look through the Manage Transports and HTTP Related Filters sections in the External HTTP Access tab. That might be a fairly quick and efficient way to reveal something out of the ordinary. That’s really all just guesswork on my part, but if something there isn’t in the green, it might point you in a helpful direction.
Thanks, Clayton.
@vitoc82: I asked Clayton to have a look at your problem as his server wrangling skills are far better than mine. You’re in good hands now. 🙂
You’re welcome.. I gave it my best guess! 🙂
cURL support enabled
cURL Information 7.21.0
SSL Version OpenSSL/0.9.8o (listed under Curl)
And listed under its own:
OpenSSL support enabled
OpenSSL Library Version OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010
OpenSSL Header Version
The only difference in the phpinfo is settings regarding fileuploads, etc.
I tried Core Control with these results:
