IBM bluemix Cloud Foundry php lack https support?

Question

When using below function on cf, if the $url starts with "https:", the method always returns false:

file_get_contents($url);

If I change the $url from "https" to "http", then it works. Is this the problem of CF or is there anyway I can use "https" to grab content from other site?

Answer 1

要从协议https获取内容，您需要从php.ini文件中启用openssl扩展。是否检查是否已启用。

Answer 2

You have to enable openssl support adding related extension in .bp-config/options.json For example

{
   "PHP_EXTENSIONS": [" openssl"]
}
