I have a PHP script that should get a page from a domain www.example.com.

The script is run from a Plesk 11.5 server that hosts subdomains of example.com, but not the www.example.com domain itself. The server is configured for the explicit subdomains only, no wildcard *.example.com stuff.

When doing a ping or traceroute from the subdomain.example.com server to the www.example.com domain, it returns the correct IP address.

When trying to do a curl request (either command line or from PHP), it tries to connect to the local server instead.

Does anybody know what might be the problem?

Does the same script works fine on your localhost ? – Shankar Narayana Damodaran Mar 31 '14 at 09:56
Have you tried using the IP with cURL and not the domain? – Loïc Mar 31 '14 at 09:57

I think, problem in configuration of /etc/hosts – Barif Mar 31 '14 at 09:58
@Loïc; seems to connect, but returns a "default" page. Perhaps the problem is in the configuration of the receiving server. wget returns same wrong page. In a browser everything works fine. – Martijn Mar 31 '14 at 10:09
@ShankarDamodaran works fine on localhost – Martijn Mar 31 '14 at 10:26
