Description: ------------ CURL needs a file resource, but Net_Curl expects $file to be a filename. As Net_Curl uses filesize() to detect the size it is not possible to use a file resource Reproduce code: --------------- $curl = new Net_Curl('http://www.netviser.de/'); $curl->username='xx'; $curl->password='xx'; $curl->file='data.xml'; $res=$curl->execute(); $curl->close(); Expected result: ---------------- No Error Actual result: -------------- Warning: curl_setopt(): supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in /usr/local/php/pear/Net/Curl.php on line 358 socket error: 111
