Hi all,
We are having a few related errors...

In Broken Links report (LinkChecker) we are seeing a number of HTTP Status 0 (no such thing)/error opening socket ssl://www.mysite.com:443 Because of our Load Balancer Drupal is blocked while trying to open a unix socket connection.

So in the status report we are seeing
HTTP request status Fails
Your system or network configuration does not allow Drupal to access web pages, resulting in reduced functionality. This could be due to your webserver configuration or PHP settings, and should be resolved in order to download information about available updates, fetch aggregator feeds, sign in via OpenID, or use other network-dependent services. If you are certain that Drupal can access web pages but you are still seeing this message, you may add $conf['drupal_http_request_fails'] = FALSE; to the bottom of your settings.php file.

Is there an alternative to the socket?

Thanks!

Solved: Installed https://www.drupal.org/project/chr and both sets of errors are gone.

Anyone know any possible issues with this?
