socket_create

[sirion]

I got a problem with socket_create

the page where I use socket_create always throws a 404 if not a 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE)

and the error_log shows:

can I safely assume that access of the function socket_create is disabled/blocked ?

or is it my fault?

I believe all of the socket functions are currently disabled. They will probably be re-enabled when the new backend system is finished. I believe Corey mentioned this in one of the new news posts.

However, even if they are re-enabled, the availability of them to you will be very very small. You must provide a very good reason why you should be allowed to use them to the staff. I don't know of anyone who has gotten V3 privileges before (everyone is on V2 right now) but I'm sure there are many who have.

I think the other problem is the firewall (which seems to be the trouble with your script since it's not giving a "disabled" warning). I don't know if you can connect to sockets outside of X10 or if you need special permission, or if the permission is granted by V3.
