First, make sure you can get a simple php script to run. Something like:lolackapoker wrote:hi everybody i wonder why api php scripts not working in my yahoo web hosting ? is it yahoo that not support the method get ? can someone explane for me please how i can make these functions working ?
Code: Select all
<?php
echo "Hello World";
?>

Re: API not working on my yahoo web hosting
Since I wrote all of the PHP examples, I of course already have a copy. You need to check with Yahoo about the two issues I mentioned. You'll probably need to hire a programmer if you don't have any web scripting experience.lolackapoker wrote:this hello world is working can i send you all the api examples to set for me please ? i dont know nothing about php i will send you all the api files by email from [email protected] thank you kent

Re: API not working on my yahoo web hosting
I don't know where your web site is, let alone the location of your php files. But changing web hosts may not be necessary if it's just a matter of flipping a switch on a firewall setting or installing a library. As I mentioned, you need to contact them and ask:lolackapoker wrote:ok you try please setup the examples to work on my website and i try if not working i change yahoo webhosting
1. Is Curl installed in my php setup?
2. Are there any firewalls blocking an outgoing connection to another site on port 8087? If so, how do I unblock that?

Re: API not working on my yahoo web hosting
It's likely a firewall issue then. Ask yahoo if they are blocking outgoing connections made with curl on certain ports. Tell them you need to connect to port 8087 on an external web server.lolackapoker wrote: curl is installed and supported in yahoo web hosting
