Some domains just freeze the script

Hello,

Well the script behaved reasonably but if I try some domains (rohost.com for instance) it just lags. The registry is PUBLICDOMAINREGISTRY.COM. Does anyone have any idea why this happens?

Regards,
Andy

Do you use the linux or windows method?

I have published the script on a Linux platform...

Is error reporting open?

Try :

ini_set('display_errors',1);?>

Just to be sure, and the above to be sure that the script is not timing out :

set_time_limit(0);?>

Well, I tried but it didn't help. Plus that this problem is with only one registry (some com domains).

Maybe they have some technical problem right now, or your server for some reason can't reach them?

Anyway I am not very familiar with Olaf's classes, so I guess you should wait from a response from him :)

I don't know this whois server, maybe you need to add some vars???

try the server I suggested if this is working you know the problem, if you're still not sure check the demo here:
http://www.finalwebsites.com/demos/php_whois_script.php

this page is using the same class you have downloaded

This is funny...the FinaWebSites demo works just fine. What does this mean? Is this server banner from that specific registry?

Regards!

I don't know, just use this whois server for .com:

whois.crsnic.net

(like provided)

Hello,

I have been using the provided server for .com. I have not changed it. However I have copied the script on another server and here it works.

Now, about now I would conclude that the first server is banned from CRSNIC. However another script on the same server is working just fine (I don't know if it queries CRSNIC though).

Anyway...thanks to all that took time to answer!

Bug or Flaw!
In your demo this domain name will show as registered (engineeringinindia.com). But if I use the scripts in my website, this domain shows as free. Weird!. Probably the scripts are different. i.e., the demo script and download scripts. :o

I need to update the script on my site because of a server update...(the whois command is not available anymore)

Your script is good. May I know what is the server update. Presently for .com you are using whois.crsnic.net
Thanks

the update is only related to my own web host, not related to the script.

please tell me if you have still this problem with my demo, thanks
