Why Always This Error?

[syanhs]

I'm trying to get the current status of my radio, but php always gives error. Appears:

Warning: fsockopen () [function. fsockopen]: unable to connect to ... (Connection timed out) in ... on line ...

Connection Refused.

I have tested this code in another host and it results. It's a problem of host or am I doing something wrong?

We don't allow connections (in or out) on non-standard ports, so odds are our firewall is intentionally preventing that connection.

 

What are you connecting to?

I am trying to connect my web radio there, to see what song is currently playing, etc...

What port number?

 

If it's not on a common web port (e.g. 21, 80, 443, etc.), it won't work. You would need to change the port used by the radio server to something we allow.
