How to communicate a Java server using PHP?

I succeeded setup a Java TCP server. I succeeded setup a PHP TCP client. (By using stream_get_contents, fwrite) The problem is, when I try to transfer my PHP TCP client to a hosting company (in my case GoDaddy.com), it doesn't work. GoDaddy probably blocks stream_get_contents. What are my alternatives?

Solution

  • did you try your code locally? if it works locally maybe you should try these:
    -fix firewall issue on JAVA tcp server machine
    -check for NAT/PAT configuration
    and if it still doesn't work, I don't think you can communicate with other servers at socket level on hosting environments(not sure). but why don't you use web services?
