Question

I am trying to purge a file through the MaxCDN API but it’s not working. Here’s the code I’m using. The print_r doesn’t return any result.

function purge() {
    date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
    $date = date('c');
    $apiid = 'myapiid';
    $apikey = 'myapi';
    $auth_key = hash('sha256', $date.':'.$apikey.':purge');
    $url = 'http://softsailor.alexdumitru.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/themes/ss3/includes/sprite.jpg';
    if (!class_exists('IXR_Client')) {
        require_once (ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-IXR.php');
    }
    $client = new IXR_Client('api.netdna.com','/xmlrpc/cache',80);
    $client->timeout = 30;
    $client->query('cache.purge', $apiid, $auth_string, $date, $url);
    print_r($client->getResponse());
}

I turned debug on and I’m getting the following error
Something went wrong – -32300 : transport error – HTTP status code was not 200

Hey Alex. I work at MaxCDN and here is a code example that I took from our Wiki:

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
include("lib/xmlrpc.inc");
$cur = date('c');
$apiKey = 'api-key';
$apiUserId = 'api-user-id';
$namespace = 'cache';
$method = 'purge';
$authString = hash('sha256', $cur . ':' . $apiKey . ':' . $method);

// this is the url to purge
$url= 'http://static.jdorfman.netdna-cdn.com/static/images/frugal-it-logo.png';
$f=new xmlrpcmsg("$namespace.$method", array(php_xmlrpc_encode($apiUserId),
php_xmlrpc_encode($authString), php_xmlrpc_encode($cur),
php_xmlrpc_encode($url)));
$c=new xmlrpc_client("/xmlrpc/cache", "api.netdna.com", 80,'http11');
$r=&$c->send($f);
print_r($r);
?>
