How to enable HTTPS stream wrappers

问题

I installed php5 on my windows system and tried to execute the following script with a command-line console:

<?php
// load in credentials
$creds = parse_ini_file(\'/etc/aws.conf\');

// Define query string keys/values
$params = array(
    \'Action\' => \'DescribeAvailabilityZones\',
    \'AWSAccessKeyId\' => $creds[\'access_key\'],
    \'Timestamp\' => gmdate(\'Y-m-d\\TH:i:s\\Z\'),
    \'Version\' => \'2008-05-05\',
    \'ZoneName.0\' => \'us-east-1a\',
    \'ZoneName.1\' => \'us-east-1b\',
    \'ZoneName.2\' => \'us-east-1c\',
    \'SignatureVersion\' => 2,
    \'SignatureMethod\' => \'HmacSHA256\'
);

// See docs
// http://tr.im/jbjd
uksort($params, \'strnatcmp\');
$qstr = \'\';
foreach ($params as $key => $val) {
    $qstr .= \"&{$key}=\".rawurlencode($val);
}
$qstr = substr($qstr, 1);

// Signature Version 2
$str = \"GET\\n\"
     . \"ec2.amazonaws.com\\n\"
     . \"/\\n\"
     . $qstr;

// Generate base64-encoded RFC 2104-compliant HMAC-SHA256
// signature with Secret Key using PHP 5\'s native 
// hash_hmac function.
$params[\'Signature\'] = base64_encode(
    hash_hmac(\'sha256\', $str, $creds[\'secret_key\'], true)
);

// simple GET request to EC2 Query API with regular URL 
// encoded query string
$req = \'https://ec2.amazonaws.com/?\' . http_build_query(
    $params
);
$result = file_get_contents($req);

// do something with the XML response
echo $result;

But it says that it\'s unable to find the wrapper \"https\" and asks if I forget to enable it when I configured PHP.

What is the problem and how to settle it?

回答1:

1: Check which wrappers are installed.

<?php var_dump(stream_get_wrappers()); ?>

2: If you dont see "https" on the list, add to/uncomment from php.ini

extension=php_openssl.dll

Restart your server*, and your done.

*if server fails to restart go download php_openssl.dll from someplace and stick it in your extensions directory defined in the php.ini file, restart server, say a few hell mary's and pray.

The file_get_contents line, at the end of your script, is trying to send an HTTPS request -- see the URL in $req, which starts by 'https://ec2...'.

For this to be possible, PHP needs a "wrapper" to send HTTPS requests -- which doesn't seem to be installed on your system ; which means you cannot send HTTPS requests using the fopen familly of functions.

For more informations about stream wrappers, if you are curious, you can take a look at List of Supported Protocols/Wrappers, and, in your case, HTTP and HTTPS.

You'll either have to install the HTTPs wrapper -- on Windows, I have no idea how to do that, unfortunately...

Or you'll have to use something else that file_get_contents to send your HTTPS request -- I would use the functions provided by the curl extension (Here, too, not sure it will work "out of the box", though :-( ).

For an example, you can take a look at what's proposed on the manual page of curl_exec :

// create a new cURL resource
$ch = curl_init();

// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);

// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);

// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);

Note you'll probably have to set a couple more options, using curl_setopt -- you should go through that page : there are a lot of useful options ;-)

As a sidenote, you are using this line at the beginning of your script :

$creds = parse_ini_file('/etc/aws.conf');

The path /etc/aws.conf feels strange, as you said you are using a Windows system : this looks like the kind of path one would use on an UNIX/Linux system.

Open php.ini. Find this line:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; ...
;extension=ext/php_oci8.dll
extension=ext/php_openssl.dll         ; <---- you want this
;extension=ext/php_pdo_firebird.dll
; ...

you want to uncomment the extension=ext/php_openssl.dll line. Make sure there is a pho_openssl.dll file in the ext/ directory, relative to your php.ini (or maybe more importantly to the extension_dir variable in the ini).

回答4:

Simple. I had this error and gave me such headaches. Enable (uncomment the line extension=php_openssl.dll) in your php.ini file. This will solve the issue.
