Zend Http Client Reponse header data?

Question

I get json file content using the zend http client in magento. I don't need header info on getBody(). I did test it on some host where it works. But the live host gives me troubles.

$request_url = "link";
$httpClientConfig = array('maxredirects' => 0);
$client = new Zend_Http_Client($request_url, $httpClientConfig);
$client->setMethod(Zend_Http_Client::GET);
try {
    $response = $client->request();
} catch (Exception $e) {
    Mage::throwException($this->__('Gateway request error: %s', $e->getMessage()));
}

Mage::log($response->getBody());

Result logging:

Answer 1

Try this:

Zend_Http_Response::extractBody($response->getBody());

Or don't retrieve the headers in the request when instantiating the Zend_Http_Client:

$httpClientConfig = array(
    'maxredirects' => 0, 
    'curloptions' => array(CURLOPT_HEADER => false),
);

If the above doesn't work, you can try an alternative way of doing the request such as file_get_contents:

$response = file_get_contents($request_url);

I hope it helps.
