The actual problem of this error has nothing to do with file get content  the problem is the requested url if the url is not throwing content of the page and redirecting the request to some where else file get content says  Failed to open stream   just before file get contents check whether the url is working and not redirecting  here is the code    function checkRedirect404  url      ch   curl init     curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT HEADER  true   curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER  true        curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT URL   url        out   curl exec  ch           line endings is the wonkiest piece of this whole thing      out   str replace   r        out           only look at the headers      headers end   strpos  out    n n        if   headers end     false               out   substr  out  0   headers end                  headers   explode   n    out       foreach  headers as  header            if  substr  header  0  10      Location                      target   substr  header  10                  echo  Redirects   target lt br gt                 return true                             return false

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
