When the script is executed on the OPEN SERVER on my computer, the response is "HTTP / 1.1 403 Forbidden" and this is the correct response.
When executed on a virtual server on the hosting SPRINTHOST.ru the response is "HTTP / 1.1 200 OK" is a lie!
What’s the matter, why the hosting forces the script to execute differently.

$ headers = @get_headers ('https://user11183.clients-cdnnow.ru/hls/TV1000_HD/master .m3u8 ');
  echo $ headers [0];

Answer 1

response from local server

array (11) {[0] = & gt; string (22) "HTTP / 1.1 403 Forbidden" [1] = & gt; string (13) "Server: nginx" [2] = & gt; string (35) "Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2020 18:32:31 GMT" [3] = & gt; string (23) "Content-Type: text / html" [4] = & gt; string (19) "Content-Length: 146" [5] = & gt; string (17) "Connection: close" [6] = & gt; string (25) "X-Geo-Allowed-Country: no" [7] = & gt; string (22) "X-Geo-Country: Belarus" [8] = & gt; string (14) "X-Geo-Code: BY" [9] = & gt; string (21) "X-Geo-City: Dokshytsy" [10] = & gt; string (23) "X-Edge-Ip: 172.19.25.48"}

response from hosting

array (15) {[0] = & gt; string (15) "HTTP / 1.1 200 OK" [1] = & gt; string (13) "Server: nginx" [2] = & gt; string (35) "Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2020 18:32:20 GMT" [3] = & gt; string (43) "Content-Type: application / vnd.apple.mpegurl" [4] = & gt; string (17) "Connection: close" [5] = & gt; string (44) "Last-Modified: Fri, 03 Apr 2020 18:32:20 GMT" [6] = & gt; string (20) "ETag:" 5e878134-1ff "" [7] = & gt; string (13) "X-Coder: mb-1" [8] = & gt; string (30) "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" [9] = & gt; string (42) "Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, private" [10] = & gt; string (26) "X-Geo-Allowed-Country: yes" [11] = & gt; string (21) "X-Geo-Country: Russia" [12] = & gt; string (14) "X-Geo-Code: RU" [13] = & gt; string (18) "X-Edge-Cache: MISS" [14] = & gt; string (23) "X-Edge-Ip: 172.19.25.12"}

in one answer X-Geo-Allowed-Country: yes and in another X-Geo-Allowed-Country: no
This is how I understand the redirection depending on the region, from here and the error.

Answer 2

403 Forbidden – access to the file is denied.

HTTP / 1.1 200 OK – file found, access is open.

See access rights
