cURL Proxy Connection for a Shop Script

[ajreaper]

For about four hours I was racking my brain on this stupid problem and for whatever reason I cannot fix it. I have been repeating the SAME THING over and over again with the same results.

 

I have Shop Script PRO. The Author won't help me because I purchased the script from a second party (might have been a reseller but I don't know, but I did pay for it). I did ask the Author for a module or instructions on how to modify the usps shipping module on my own, but they wanted an ORDER ID, which I don't have. So... I am trying to figure it out on my own. They did tell me, however, that the script doesn't need a complete rewrite but modifications have to be done to the cURL coding. So far I have come to the point where I hate GoDaddy to the point where I want to vomit blood.

 

Yes, the host we have is GODADDY (shared, linux). The server has cURL installed but it requires a proxy server. I modified the cURL code, but I am still unable to get real-time USPS shipping quotes.

 

Here is the color syntax of the entire module: http://cosmicgivers.com/codesyntax.html

 

 

My Errors:

 

cURL - Initially I was getting error 7, then error 28 and error 56. The errors stopped showing after I made an alteration to the API url, as suggested by a few sites.

 

USPS - The errors I receive are either 1001 (which may be just access points?), API Authorization failure. RateV2 is not a valid API name for this protocol. (with http://production.shippingapis.com) and Authorization failure.  You are not authorized to connect to this server. (with https://secure.shippingapis.com ). I have an email stating that our account is live so that isn't an issue.

 

 

I also considered just installing it in my root on the GoDaddy account (since I cannot access any subfolders). I am not sure if that would work and, further more, I have absolutely no idea how I would do that. The site using this script is: https://cosmicgivers.com/shop/  What is SUPPOSED to appear is, on the first step of checkout, there SHOULD be a drop down box with the shipping quotes. Unfortunately it hasn't yet done that.

 

 

    function _sendXMLQuery($_XMLQuery){

    if(!$_XMLQuery)return '';
    if ( !($ch = curl_init()) ){
    
    $this->_writeLogMessage(MODULE_LOG_CURL, 'Local error: '.ERR_CURLINIT)
    return ERR_CURLINIT;
    }

    if ( curl_errno($ch) != 0 ){
    
    $this->_writeLogMessage(MODULE_LOG_CURL, 'Curl error: '.curl_errno($ch))
    return ERR_CURLINIT;
    }

    if(strpos($_XMLQuery, 'RateV2Request')===false)
    $_Type = 'International';
    else 
    $_Type = 'Domestic';
    
    switch ($_Type){
    case 'Domestic':
    $url = 'http://production.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=RateV2&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
    break;
    case 'International':
    $url = 'https://secure.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=IntlRate&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
    break;
    }

    @curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url )
    @curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1 )
    @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0 )
    @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 120 )
    @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP)
        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY,"http://proxy.shr.secureserver.net:3128")

    $result = @curl_exec($ch)
    if ( curl_errno($ch) != 0){
    
    $this->_writeLogMessage(MODULE_LOG_CURL, 'Curl error: '.curl_errno($ch))
    return ERR_CURLEXEC;
    }

    curl_close($ch)
    
    return $result;
    }

Oh, and also... what I tried:

 

cURL:

 

I added

 

@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP)
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY,"http://proxy.shr.secureserver.net:3128")

 

to

 

@curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url )
@curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1 )
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0 )
@curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10 )

 

And then changed the timeout to 120 to get rid of one of the cURL errors.

 

After that change I was getting errors in my usps log. So I changed:

 

switch ($_Type){
case 'Domestic':
$url = 'https://secure.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=RateV2&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
break;
case 'International':
$url = 'https://secure.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=IntlRate&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
break;
}

 

to

 

switch ($_Type){
case 'Domestic':
$url = 'http://production.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=RateV2&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
break;
case 'International':
$url = 'https://secure.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll?API=IntlRate&XML='.urlencode($_XMLQuery)
break;
}

 

 

My last cURL error was at 3 in the morning and it was Curl error: 28. It hasn't shown any new errors since modifying the urls as seen above.

 

With the above changes I receive USPS error:

Authorization failure.  You are not authorized to connect to this server.

 

With BOTH urls changed to http://production.shippingapis.com/shippingapi.dll I receive this error:

[DATE] [TIMECODE]

1001

 

After the changes are made to cURL, the default settings for the url result in:

API Authorization failure. RateV2 is not a valid API name for this protocol.

 

But before that it is:

[DATE] [TIMECODE]

1001

 

 

I have also:

-Removed the @s in front of the curl tags

-Changed the proxy server to http://64.202.165.130:3128

-Switched around 1 and 0 for FALSE and TRUE (not not NULL)

-Used port 443 instead

-Changed anything saying HTTP to HTTPS (with the above)

-Screamed, yelled, and swore in hopes I might scare the script into working...

 

 

I can also upload the error logs if needed.
