Normal proxies (ex: 72.41.132.22:3128) work well with cURL, however when I use SOCKS 5 proxies with username/pass, It just gives me "[1" on the page.
Is there a way to use SOCKY 5 proxies with cURL ?
$proxy = "cagsan:[email protected]:34792"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); $curl_scraped_page = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch);

To use a proxy with Curl, you must pass the required proxy address using the -x (or --proxy) command-line option and proxy credentials using the -U (or --proxy-user) command-line switch. Proxy credentials may also be passed in the proxy string and will be URL decoded by Curl.
Proxies - Everything curl. A proxy is a machine or software that does something on behalf of you, the client. You can also see it as a middle man that sits between you and the server you want to work with, a middle man that you connect to instead of the actual remote server.
You need to tell cURL the proxy is a SOCKS5 proxy, otherwise cURL assumes it's an HTTP proxy:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_SOCKS5); From the docs:
CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE
Either CURLPROXY_HTTP (default) or CURLPROXY_SOCKS5.
