Timeout errors when trying to get info from server

[Mikeyxspikey]

So, I've included the steam-condenser.php file at the top of my index.php file, and further down the page I have this PHP code;

    <?php 

      $ipAddress = "185.38.149.90";

      $portNumber = 27015;

      $server = new SourceServer($ipAddress, $portNumber);

      $server->getServerInfo(); 

      print_r($server->getPlayers());

    ?>

This is a Garry's Mod server which is password protected. I have tried a different server which is no password protected and I still get this error:

[17-May-2015 18:20:19 Europe/Berlin] PHP Notice:  Sending packet of type "A2S_INFO_Packet"... in /home/aovozpnq/public_html/dev/gw/lib/steam/sockets/SteamSocket.php on line 142

#5 public_html/dev/gw/index.php(300): GameServer->getServerInfo()

#6 {main}

  thrown in public_html/dev/gw/lib/steam/sockets/SteamSocket.php on line 108

I've tried using both "getServerInfo();" and "initialize();" and still get this error.

All I want to do is get the number of players that are on a server. This info will then be used on the page.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Okay, so I found out it was to do with ports being blocked on my host.

However I not have another question. I have made a for loop which runs through an array of server IPs and will then echo some html with the server information for every server in the array. However, when a server is down, the script throws an uncaught exception timeout error. How could I check to see if the server is up first before displaying the information, in order to stop this error from breaking my for loop?

Thanks.

Hi.

You should probably catch the TimeoutException inside your for loop.

But please note that a timeout (by default) will occur after one second. Depending on the number and reliability of the servers you're querying this may have a considerable impact on the time the for loop is executing.

Best regards,
