curl problems

[michaellunsford]

I posted this on the fast moving php help forum, but I'm starting to think it might be an installation problem. I have the following code which works fine from the command line, but not from the browser:

 

<?php
$ch = curl_init() ;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/") ;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0) ;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true) ;
var_dump(curl_getinfo($ch)) ;
curl_exec($ch) ;
curl_close($ch) ;
?>

 

I'm thinking there might be a name server issue because I had to change my name server in /etc/resolv.conf recently because the ISP's name server is down. I'm using one from the opendns.org, which takes more time to respond than a local one would. Is there something I need to fix in my php config files? Or maybe it's apache related?

 

I get this when I run it from the command line:

array(20) {
  ["url"]=>
  string(22) "http://www.example.com"
  ["content_type"]=>
  string(9) "text/html"
  ["http_code"]=>
  int(200)
  ["header_size"]=>
  int(424)
  ["request_size"]=>
  int(72)
  ["filetime"]=>
  int(-1)
  ["ssl_verify_result"]=>
  int(0)
  ["redirect_count"]=>
  int(0)
  ["total_time"]=>
  float(0.055)
  ["namelookup_time"]=>
  float(0.003)
  ["connect_time"]=>
  float(0.003)
  ["pretransfer_time"]=>
  float(0.024)
  ["size_upload"]=>
  float(0)
  ["size_download"]=>
  float(9911)
  ["speed_download"]=>
  float(180200)
  ["speed_upload"]=>
  float(0)
  ["download_content_length"]=>
  float(0)
  ["upload_content_length"]=>
  float(0)
  ["starttransfer_time"]=>
  float(0.054)
  ["redirect_time"]=>
  float(0)
}

and this from the browser:

array(19) {
  ["url"]=>
  string(22) "http://www.example.com"
  ["http_code"]=>
  int(0)
  ["header_size"]=>
  int(0)

  int(0)
  ["total_time"]=>
  float(0)
  ["namelookup_time"]=>
  float(0)
  ["connect_time"]=>
  float(0)
  ["pretransfer_time"]=>
  float(0)
  ["size_upload"]=>
  float(0)
  ["size_download"]=>

  ["speed_download"]=>

  ["speed_upload"]=>

  ["download_content_length"]=>
