Server Connection Not Authorized about youtube-downloader HOT 7 CLOSED

Notice what it says in the debug. If your server is not localhost (you're running the code on a machine different than the one running your web browser) AND your curl request goes via ipv4, this will fail.

How can this be fixed? I don't know about curl but know a decent amount of php.

If the server on which you are running the code supports ipv6, you should be able to force curl to use ipv6.

This would mean setting:
curl_setopt( $ch , CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE, CURL_IPRESOLVE_V6);

Inside the curlGet($url) function in curl.php

However, my guess is that your server is falling back to ipv4 because it can't reach the youtube server over ipv6, in which case this script will not work for you - you can try the javascript in browser version I posted a link to in another thread.

Basically if you add that it may just fail with a different option

That explains it. I'm using an older server and it doesn't like ipv6. Where is this javascript version?

Thanks a lot!

You're welcome. I also updated the readme and added the config to the curl.php to resolve only to ipv6 - it will still fail but the error message might be a bit cleaner.

I don't have an ipv4 only server to try it on. ;)
