unable to fsockopen

[Wilmar1980]

When I run

$sendURL = "www.example.com";
$fp = fsockopen ($sendURL, "80", $errno, $errstr, 30);

I get

Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /var/www/trunk/www/modules/webshop/run/payment/paypal/ipn_listener.php on line 51

And when I set $sendURL to "www.sandbox.paypal.com", I get the same warning.

I've been looking into this all morning. What should I do?

fsockopen takes an integer for the second argument, not a string. Also, be sure to use a secure connection when connecting to PayPal. Their IPN guide explains about this.

The second argument used to be an integer, with the same results. My code comes directly from the PayPal examples. I am going to check the PayPal IPN guide again for the secure connection.
