I’ve been trying to access this particular REST service from a PHP page I’ve created on our server. I narrowed the problem down to these two lines. So my PHP page looks like this:
<?php
$response = file_get_contents("https://maps.co.weber.ut.us/arcgis/rest/services/SDE_composite_locator/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates?Street=&SingleLine=3042+N+1050+W&outFields=*&outSR=102100&searchExtent=&f=json");
echo $response; ?>
The page dies on line 2 with the following errors:
- Warning: file_get_contents(): SSL operation failed with code 1.
OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL
routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed in
…php on line 2
- Warning: file_get_contents(): Failed to enable crypto in …php on
line 2- Warning:
file_get_contents(https://maps.co.weber.ut.us/arcgis/rest/services/SDE_composite_locator/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates?Street=&SingleLine=3042+N+1050+W&outFields=*&outSR=102100&searchExtent=&f=json):
failed to open stream: operation failed in …php on line 2
We’re using a Gentoo server. We recently upgraded to PHP version 5.6. It was after the upgrade when this problem appeared.
I found when I replace the REST service with an address like https://www.google.com; my page works just fine.
In an earlier attempt I set “verify_peer”=>false, and passed that in as an argument to file_get_contents, as described here: file_get_contents ignoring verify_peer=>false? But like the writer noted; it made no difference.
I’ve asked one of our server administrators if these lines in our php.ini file exist:
- extension=php_openssl.dll
- allow_url_fopen = On
He told me that since we’re on Gentoo, openssl is compiled when we build; and it’s not set in the php.ini file.
I also confirmed that allow_url_fopen is working. Due to the specialized nature of this problem; I’m not finding a lot of information for help. Have any of you come across something like this? Thanks.
