Two things that I noted, one of which has been mentioned
earlier, if you are connecting to an SSL site (https) and
don't have the appropriate certificate, don't forget to set
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER as "false"... it's set to
"true" by default. Scratched my head over 2 hours
to figure this one out as I had a machine with an older
version installed and everything worked fine without using
this option on that one - but failed on other machines with
newer versions.
Second very important thing, I've never had my scripts work
(tried on various machines, multiple platforms) with a
Relative path to a COOKIEJAR or COOKIEFILE. In my experience
I HAVE to specify the absolute path and not the relative
path.
Small script I wrote to connect to a page, gather all
cookies into a jar, connect to another page to login, taking
the cookiejar with you for authentication:
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR,
"/Library/WebServer/Documents/tmp/cookieFileName")
;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"htt
ps://www.example.com/myaccount/start.asp");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
ob_start(); // Prevent output
curl_exec ($ch);
ob_end_clean(); // End preventing output
curl_close ($ch);
unset($ch);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
"field1=".$f1."&field2=".$f2."&
amp;SomeFlag=True");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE,
"/Library/WebServer/Documents/tmp/cookieFileName")
;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"htt
ps://www.example.com/myaccount/Login.asp");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
$result = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
