PHPRunner General questions

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a way to send sms through an PHPR site.

The API witch i'm trying to use is https://www.nexmo.com/
I store the "api key", "api secret" in user table.

In my table for new sms there are 3 columns:

"sms_to_number"

"sms_sender_number"

"sms_message"
On the Add page (and Before record added) i have the following code:



$url = 'https://rest.nexmo.com/sms/json?'; . http_build_query([

'api_key' =>$_SESSION["sms_api_key"],

'api_secret' =>$_SESSION["sms_api_secret"],

'to' =>$values["sms_to_number"],

'from' =>$values["sms_sender_number"],

'text' =>$values["sms_message"]

]);
$ch = curl_init($url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);


My problem is that the url never seems to be performed.
If i echo $url i can see that the url is right (i can even test the url in browser window and the sms is sent).
I guess that i made something wrong in above code?

As a first step - make sure this code is executed. It might be located in the part of event that never runs.
Once you are sure it is executed - check for any PHP errors. You can also create a test PHP file hardcoding all values and running it manually to see if it works this way.

Thanks,
Tried to make an php file, hordcoded with all values (on another webserver).

When running the php file i get this:



Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in C:\wamp\www\folder\test.php on line 2

What version of PHP your server runs?

As a workaround i also tried to use cURL instead (as stated here : https://developers.nexmo.com/Quickstarts/sms/send/)

Dont know if its possible at all to use cURL in this way...
When trying the code:



curl 'https://rest.nexmo.com/sms/json'; \

-d api_key=$_SESSION["sms_api_key"] \

-d api_secret=$_SESSION["sms_api_secret"] \

-d to=$values["sms_to_number"] \

--data-urlencode . $values["sms_message"] \

-d from=$values["sms_sender_number"]


I get this error inside the PHPRunner program:

syntax error, unexpected ''https://rest.nexmo.com/sms/js'; (T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING) in line 2

Running cURL from the command line is more complicated than using PHP curl_ functions.
The reason I asked about PHP version is that your sample uses syntax (array in square brackets) that is available in PHP 5.4 or higher. And error message said

unexpected '['


Anyway, you need to modify this sample code till it runs in your test PHP file and then use in PHPRunner.

Made it work at last <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=78663&image=1&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

After adding this to my php code i got som usefull information what went wrong:



if(!curl_exec($curl)){

die('Error: "' . curl_error($curl) . '" - Code: ' . curl_errno($curl));


Problem was Certificate issue, added the row:



CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => 0,



To temporary go around the problem and see some result !
