Socket transport ssl in PHP not enabled

Question

I m having trouble enabling the socket transport  ssl  in PHP   When I run my script  I get the error      Warning  fsockopen      function fsockopen   unable to   connect to ssl   www my site com 443    Unable to find the socket transport    ssl  - did you forget to enable it   when you configured PHP     I m running IIS6 on Windows and this is what I ve done so far to try to get it working    uncommented the php openssl dll and php sockets dll extensions in php ini made sure PHP was loading the ini file I made changes to  it is  and it s definitely loading other extensions  so I m fairly sure this isn t the problem  made sure php openssl dll and php sockets dll were in the correct location copied ssleay32 dll and libeay32 dll to the main PHP folder  the WINDOWS folder and the WINDOWS system32 folder made sure the Windows path variable included the location of PHP made sure the file permissions were correct on all the relevant files    I ve restarted IIS after pretty much every change  but I haven t had any luck   Is there anything obvious that I m doing wrong   Is there anyway to troubleshoot this in smaller parts    So I can figure out the problem by the process of elimination       Unfortunately Windows IIS aren t my area of expertise--I ve been put in charge because nobody else seems to know anything

I was having problem in Windows 7 with PHP 5.4.0 in command line, using Xampp 1.8.1 server. This is what i did:

Rename php.ini-production to php.ini (in C:\xampp\php\ folder)
Edit php.ini and uncomment extension_dir=ext.
Also uncomment extension=php_openssl.dll.

After that it worked fine.

I am using XAMPP and came across the same error  I had done all those steps  added environmental variables path  copied the dll s every directory possible  to  php   apache bin   system32   syswow64  etc   but still got this error    Then after checking the apache error log  I noticed the issue with using brackets in path       PHP   syntax error  unexpected     in C  Program Files    other  xampp php php ini on line 707 0 server certificate does NOT   include an ID which matches the server name   If you have installed the server in  Program Files  x86   directory  the same error might occur due to the non-escaped brackets   To fix this  open php ini file and locate the line containing  include path  and enclose the path with double quotes to fix this error      include path  C  Program Files  other  xampp php PEAR
