What did i do wrong? please help me.

 

Could be any number of things. Can we see some code? Also, make sure your include_path is set properly.

[Katanius]

the code i used is this:

<?php
require_once 'Net/DNS.php';

$resolver = new Net_DNS_Resolver();
$response = $resolver->query('example.com');
if ($response) {
  foreach ($response->answer as $rr) {
    $rr->display();
  }
}
?>

its straight from the documentation example, i also tryied this:

<?php

// include class file
include("Net/DNS.php");

// create object
$ndr = new Net_DNS_Resolver();

// uncomment this for debug output
// $ndr->debug = 1;

// query for IP address
$answer = $ndr->search("cnet.com", "A");

// print output
print_r($answer);

?>

also with no success.

 

this is my include path:

 

;include_path = "C:\PHP5\PEAR"

 

and this is my php instalation dir:

C:\PHP5

the package is installed in:

C:\PHP5\PEAR\Net

Have you got error_reporting and display_errors enabled? I don't see any problems, though I have no idea what the methods of the Net_DNS_Resolver class actually are.

[Katanius]

error_reporting is set to E_ALL and i set display_errors = on in the php.ini but still nothing... is there anything else i should check or something i might have forgoten or done wrong?

Hard to tell.. Ive never used said class. But require_once() will generate errors if it doesn't work, and calling invalid methods also.

[Katanius]

I changed the code to this enabeling debug output:

<?php

// include class file
require_once("Net\DNS.php");

// create object
$ndr = new Net_DNS_Resolver();
echo $ndr;

// uncomment this for debug output
$ndr->debug = 1;
echo $ndr;

// query for IP address
$answer = $ndr->search("google.com", "MX");
echo $ndr;

// print output
print_r($answer);


?>

 

and got this output:

 

Object id #1Object id #1;; search(google.com, MX, IN) ;; query(google.com, MX, IN) ;; using simple sockets Object id #1

 

What does this mean? does it mean the package works and im doing something wrong or it doent work an just outputs something?

I just cant seem to get it to work... and i really need it to work! do you know of anywhare i can get some help with this cause the documentation doesnt help much...
