file_get_contents（）'无法打开流'错误检索推文

Question

I am trying to create a simple script that will retrieve the last 5 feeds for a twitter user (in this instance the BBC)

It runs okay locally on my development server but once I upload this to a live site I get the following error:

Warning: file_get_contents(https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?include_entities=true&include_rts=true&screen_name=bbc&count=5): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request in ....

Does anyone know why this doesn't work on my live server (but fine on my dev server?)

Answer 1

As mentioned in file_get_contents throws 400 Bad Request error PHP, you may be better using curl instead of file_get_contents due to its improved error handling - this may provide you with another clue.
