imap_open() says "invalid remote specification" and fails to connect
- by Kristopher Ives
When I try to use imap_open I get the following error:
Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {mail.domain.com:110/pop3/novalidate-cert/} in /path/to/mailbox.php on line 5
Can't open mailbox {mail.domain.com:110/pop3/novalidate-cert/}: invalid remote specification
My phpinfo says that I have:
IMAP c-Client Version 2007e
SSL Support enabled
Kerberos Support enabled
On another server that gives the same phpinfo for imap it works, although that version is 2006. PHP says it was compiled with the following settings:
'./configure' '--disable-path-info-check' '--enable-exif' '--enable-fastcgi' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-pdo=shared' '--enable-soap' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-zip' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-bz2' '--with-curl=/opt/curlssl/' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-gd' '--with-gettext' '--with-imap=/opt/php_with_imap_client/' '--with-imap-ssl=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-kerberos' '--with-libexpat-dir=/usr' '--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2' '--with-libxml-dir=/opt/xml2/' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' '--with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--with-openssl-dir=/usr' '--with-pdo-mysql=shared' '--with-pdo-sqlite=shared' '--with-pgsql=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-sqlite=shared' '--with-ttf' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr'
