File_Get_Contents() How to Fix Error "Failed to Open Stream", "No Such File"

file_get_contents() how to fix error Failed to open stream, No such file

The URL is missing the protocol information. PHP thinks it is a filesystem path and tries to access the file at the specified location. However, the location doesn't actually exist in your filesystem and an error is thrown.

You'll need to add http or https at the beginning of the URL you're trying to get the contents from:

$json = json_decode(file_get_contents('http://...'));

As for the following error:

Unable to find the wrapper - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?

Your Apache installation probably wasn't compiled with SSL support. You could manually try to install OpenSSL and use it, or use cURL. I personally prefer cURL over file_get_contents(). Here's a function you can use:

function curl_get_contents($url)
{
  $ch = curl_init($url);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
  $data = curl_exec($ch);
  curl_close($ch);
  return $data;
}

Usage:

$url = 'https://...';
$json = json_decode(curl_get_contents($url));

Warning: file_get_contents failed to open stream: No such file or directory?

Try string like this it may help

Just use . for concatenating.

$localFile='/var/www/uploads/$file_name';

to

$localFile='/var/www/uploads/'.$file_name;

and

$remoteFile='/home/nsadmin/$file_name';

to

 $remoteFile='/home/nsadmin/'.$file_name;

how to fix 'file_get_content' failed to open stream

Try to make use of Laravel's base_path() helper.

base_path() is equal to the root of your project. So, let's, for example, you want to access estimated_dates.pdf. The correct solution would be:

base_path('storage/app/public/estimated_dates.pdf');

However, you could make use of:

php artisan storage:link

and you can access the file by: asset('estimated_dates.pdf')

I guess your helloworld.pdf is in root of the application, so:

base_path('helloworld.pdf')

base_path(): https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/helpers#method-base-path

storage:link: https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/filesystem#configuration

Message: file_get_contents(sso.json): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

If you change to

$url = __DIR__.'/sso.json';

This should work.

file_get_contents gives me failed to open stream

I don't know Why the problem happened but here is the code that fixed it, thanks to "NikiC" who found out that witespace " " was the problem, I fixed it.

This Code doesn't work

$image = explode("\n", $_POST['images']);
for ($i = 0; $i < count($image); $i++){
    if (substr($image[$i], 0, strlen($this->host) - 1) != $this->host){
        file_put_contents('images/'.$title_url.'_'.$i.'.jpg', file_get_contents($image[$i]));
        $image[$i] = $this->host.'/images/'.$title_url.'_'.$i.'.jpg';                                
    }
}
$poster = $image[0];
$images = implode("\n", $image);

This is working code

$image = explode("\n", $_POST['images']);
for ($i = 0; $i < count($image); $i++){
    if (substr($image[$i], 0, strlen($this->host) - 1) != $this->host){
        if ($i < count($image)-1){
            $kk = substr($image[$i], 0, strlen($image[$i]) - 1);
        } else {
            $kk = $image[$i];
        }
        if ($this->download($kk, 'images/'.$title_url.'_'.$i.'.jpg')){
            $image[$i] = $this->host.'/images/'.$title_url.'_'.$i.'.jpg';
        }else{
            echo($image[$i]);
        }
    }
}
//****************************************************
    public function download($url, $path){
        if (file_put_contents($path, file_get_contents($url))){return TRUE;}else{return FALSE;}
    }

file_get_contents() failed to open stream: No such file or directory

remove extra .php from url

   $filename = "http://www.hf-live.com/codeupdate/Get_Files_Name.php";

You will get error if you are doing this way...

   $filename = "marynyhof.com/Info.php"; // will give you error, which exactly you are getting

use full url like this

   $filename = "http://www.marynyhof.com/Info.php"; //will work

file_get_contents(): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Use $tmp_name when calling file_get_contents(). This is the actual location of the file on disk until the end of the request. $name contains the original name of the uploaded file in case you need it.
