HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 505 HTTP Version Not Supported error

Question

I\'m trying to use file_get_contents() to get the response from a server and this error was encountered. Could someone tell me what is the reason and how to fix

Answer 1

You could create a stream context with the HTTP version set to 1.0 and use that context with file_get_contents:

$options = array(
    'http' => array(
        'protocol_version' => '1.0',
        'method' => 'GET'
    )
);
$context = stream_context_create($options);
$api = "http://smpp5.routesms.com:8080/bulksms/sendsms?username=$username&password=$password&source=$source&destination=$destin&dlr=$dlr&type=$type&message=$message";
$resp = file_get_contents($api, false, $context);

By the way: Don’t forget to escape your URI argument values properly with urlencode.
