What has always worked for me was to make sure MySQL is running, and if so
then go delete the mysql.sock file and restart MySQL, not sure why but the

Good idea.

The problem was that the installation instructions for MySQL for vague
and confusing. I started trying to install from rpm and that didn't
work. I then installed from the binary and that was hell too. All the
problems stemmed from the fact that I couldn't figure out where MySQL
was installing itself too.

I finally was able to find the source and install with that and force it
to be where I wanted.

I had the feeling that installing MySQL was going to be easy but it
isn't all that simple. Maybe thay've made it *too* easy ;)

Now, creating users ... what a pain.

Just out of curiosity how can you pass an md5 hash to a database like
mysql as password? Taking mysql as an example I would say you need to pass
the pwd in clearform since mysql will probably do a hash to it to compare
it to its internal rights db. Or is there a feature that tells mysql upon
connection that the pwd is allready hashed?
I mean storing the hash as the password doesn't resolve the conflict since
then you have the clear password in the file again.
So how can this be done?

Set the column type of password to be a char(32). Then, pass the password
through md5 to mysql to store it. To verify it, pass the password through
md5 then compare it to what's in the database.

Or, to avoid problems with MD5 weaknesses, use SHA1 :)

As a suggestion can you simply redisplay your form on the error page and
such avoid having to use the back button? This would also allow you to
actually display the error at the place the error occurs.
Another thing you might want to try is using a cache header that allows
the browser to cache the site for a certain time. This way the browser
might redisplay the page without reseting it. I have not tested this and
can't promise that this will actually work.

Right. Also don't forget, there have been exploits in the past, and there
will be in the future that will allow a hacker access to your docroot (not
necessarily the entire system) through the web browser, and they can
download all those files. Why leave the database connection information in
there for him?

Yes, it could be SOAP although a less bloated protocol over HTTP would do.

That is the point but if you make the database server accessible from
the Web server, anybody that hacks the Web server, can hack the
information in the database server, making having the two servers pointless.

Not necessarily. There are a number of things that one can do to protect
the second machine. The first one can be limited to whatever requests
the Web server was allowed to make. So, data on the second server can be
secured.

I've seen it done where the connection between the web and data servers
was made using SNA instead of TCP/IP to increase security. Regardless of
protocols, the database server can be configured to only accept certain
requests from the web server, and none at all from outside the trusted
network.

IBM markets an iSeries server that allows you to configure multiple
servers in one box. You can have different physical servers, or
different logical servers, or a mix. By configuring separate web and
data servers, you can dramatically increase security.

It just takes a little planning.

Go for the PHP Installer. It's straight forward to install...
Do download the Zip file also, in case u need any extensions (DLL)

What I tend to do is to download the installer and run it as this sets
up all the configuration (eg IIS)

I then download the zip file (Which contains a load of extra files eg
PEAR) and copy the whole unzipped directory to overwite the c:\php dir
contents created by the installer.

This might be a bit "cock handed" way of doing it but it works for me.

If its IIS server then I suggest (personal view) that you use CGI - I
recently had a couple of applications crash my ISP host and changing to
CGI solved the problem.

Hope it helps

depend on which web server :

for apache : use php as a module
for IIS (very bad id) : use php as a ISAPI

In either case don't use php as a CGI, this won't allow persistant
connection (very usefull for mysql....)
Hope that helped !

From my understanding you can get PHP with CGI to do persistant connection
if you install fastcgi.

In additon to the previous comment about resetting $*_color, you're
multiplying the decimal value by 100 to get a percentage. But then
you're comparing it to 1, not 100.

EWither don't multiply it by 100, or check to see if it's > 100. Or
do you really want $*_color to be set if it's greater than 1%?

Actually, if you look really carefully, you'll see he's comparing it
successively to every integer between the initial value of $num (or 1 if it
wasn't set) and 100 -- but as he's never remembering these, all he'll get
out of this is whether the percentages are greater then one of these values
(which, if the loop starts at 1, it's more then likely they all will be!).

Mind you, if this is a snip of the real script and there's some output
making use of these values each time round the loop, this may actually be
what's required. ;)

Cheers!

Very true. I didn't look carefully enough at the code.

I would hope something else is happening. It'd be a pretty boring
application otherwise! ;^)

Hello,
I performed some tests using the backticks operator

My problem is that it works too much ;-)
because the SYSTEM account can read everywhere in my win partition.
Is it possible to have the command executed by the user
IUSR_machinename instead of SYSTEM ?
In this case I can set up proper right in order to prevent access
to certain sensitive folders....

TIA, bye,

I want to give the visitor a possibility to create plenty of new user
accounts by letting the him paste the userinfo from a tab-, comma- or
semicolonseparated file to a textarea (form.php). Then some checking needs
to be done (check_users.php) before the final result is written to the db
(add_users.php).
Right now I'm trying to achieve this by putting the user input into a
(temporary) file and populate the fields in check_users.php from this file.
This works. But now I will do some changes before I write to the db, and
here I know nada. Is there some useful functions here that is useful? (How
can I edit this temp-file?)
I have (as mentioned above) another idea: use a temporay table and populate
this from the user input. Do the changes here, using the queries needed,
write from this table to the real place and then drop this table. What is
the best approach?

or when the data come in, you can put them into an array and pass on the
array through a hidden form field. before putting it in the hidden field
serialize the array
and in the receiving page unserialize it.

http://nl.php.net/manual/en/function.serialize.php

(take care to prevent tampering)

Since I'm new to the subject have patience with my 'stupid' questions. On
the form-page I don't have a session_start(), right?
But, this means the session will not be set before I reload the
check_users.php?
From what I can see the session var is a string exactly a copy of the input
(the csv, txt or skv-file). How can I now delete let's say the second row in
this session var?

Hello,

I'm having a really strange output problem that I can't figure out.
The problem is that a few characters appear prepended and appended to
the body of the server response. I'm running PHP 4.3.0 and 4.3.2 on
Mac OS X (tibook and xserve) and Red Hat 7.1 with 4.3.2 as well, with
Apache 1.3 on all of them.

Here is a reproduction of the problem on two servers:

From the command line... (the following URL illustrates the problem,
feel free to use it)

(Request)
$ telnet dev.ourvoices.ca 80
GET /test.php HTTP/1.1
Host: dev.ourvoices.ca

(Response)
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
...other headers...
Content-Type: text/html

3
foo
0

(The code in /test.php)
<?php echo 'foo'; ?>

(What's with the 3 and the 0)

You can also duplicate this problem at ourvoices.sitellite.org on the
Linux box as well.

phpinfo() can be seen for both these machines at:

http://dev.ourvoices.ca/phpinfo.php
http://ourvoices.sitellite.org/phpinfo.php

Anyone seen this before? Anyone know of a solution?

Thanks in advance,

The three might be the "Content-length" header, not sure
though, thats just a guess since your outputting 3 characters.

This is HTTP Chunked transfer encoding. Practically all browsers around
these days understand this, and will correctly render the above as just

foo

(The technical details are that output is sent as a series of chunks
consisting of the chunk length followed by that many bytes. A chunk length
of 0 indicates the end of the data.)

Cheers!

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the info. The problem is that I'm trying to output an M3U
file to stream a series of MP3s, and some players won't properly parse
the output due to the first line containing that chunk info. Is there
a way to turn it on and off that you know of?

Thanks again,

Lux

I downloaded PHP 5-dev from snaps last night but it is giving me an error
when I try to install it. The error is: The dynamic link library libxml2.dll
could not be found in the specified path.

I have been downloading and installing PHP 5 from snaps for some time and
haven't had any problem installing it prior to this. Is this a change,
something different about the installation procedure? Or is there a problem
with PHP 5 on snaps.

I am using Windows 2000. I download the zip file, unzip into the PHP
directory, and copy php4ts.dll into winnt\system32. This has worked many
times in the past.

Thanks,

Janet

You need to copy dlls\*.dll to winnt\system32 too.

Yes, but my question is about the change. There are two, libxml2 and iconv,
that I had to copy into the system directory before PHP 5 would run. I didn't
have to do this when I previously installed PHP 5. I just started having to
copy these dlls yesterday. My question is whether this is a permanent change
to the installation process or something that will be fixed.

attached mail follows:

Yes, this is something that would probably be changed before the final
release, maybe even in the upcoming beta1.

Hi folks

First, thanks to Jim for the greeat tree-menu, we are just editing it.
Ok, we are doing the tutorial for the Intranet of our University. There is
just a lot of information and we want to give the user all the ways to find
the information he's looking for. Hence, we need a great search engine too.

We have all our information stored in a MYSQL database. We need a search
engine to look for the keywords we have in our tables and that show the
related results. Anyone knows a good search engine -free- for this treat?

thanks

I haven't found anything that would handle the problem you have... in my
case I would create the galleries that I needed... maybe write some
reiterate code that would display recreated thumbs from the images...

this could be done when the upload is done and the new image created from
the old one using create from functionality available in the php engine such
as
http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecreatefromjpeg.php

or one of the others you find there.... good luck

What Sybase are you using Sybase ASE (Adaptive Server Enterprise) or Sybase

Is your PHP server on Windows or Linux.

What you will need is the Sybase client first off. PHP links to the sql.ini
files (in windows).
Then you will need to edit your php.ini and uncomment the Sybase extension.

Will take a look at function.serialize too. Thank you guys

attached mail follows:

I have a string something like ->
<[TIT2]> ABC <[TPE1]> GHI <[TALB]> XYZ
Im applying a regex as such ->
// Title/Songname/Content
preg_match('/<\[TIT2\]>(.*?)(<\[)?/', $foo, $match);
$title = trim( $match[1] );

The above regex doesn't work. At the end of the pattern Im using (<\[)?
The pattern may or may not end with <[
For example searching for -> <[TALB]> XYZ
The string, is *NOT* expected to hold a certain order as how it is
retrieved.
How does one go about to fix up this regex?

It just stops dead. The body color is still there on the screen but

Hi!

Noticed something interesting. I was helping to debug someone's
programming problem and found that if there is to many 'else if' in the if
and else statement then it doesn't work. Have anyone encoutered this
problem and know of a workaround to it?

Thanks,
Scott

That sounds kinda bizzare, how many elseif's did you have? also, were you
using 'else if' or 'elseif'?

Just found the problem, the if, else-if, else statement work okay when it is
too many. The reason it doesn't work is because there's a loophole in the
script due to someone's flaw logic or haven't thought about it when
brainstorming...

I have a little piece of code for you that may help cleaning up your
if/elseif sequence. Not tested && may contain typos && use on your own
risk. Hope the list doesn't clutter it too much...

This multi-dimensional array should make it quite easy to manage such
situations. The main array consists of a series of sub-arrays ("structures"
containing these elements:
- 'expr' - if this evaluates to TRUE, the following checks are performed
- 'check' - an array of fieldname => error message
- 'pattern' - a pattern for sprintf to format the message

"fieldname" is assumed to be a $_REQUEST element that is checked for
emptiness. If empty, the message is issued (just as in your code) and the
function returns false. If no error occurs throughout the tests, the
function returns "Pass" (I'd prefer "true").

$test_map = array(
   array('expr' => 'true',
         'pattern' => 'Enter [%s]',
         'check' => array('firstname' => 'First Name',
                            'lastname' => 'Last Name',
                            'address' => 'Address',
                            'city' => 'City',
                            'state' => 'State',
                            'zipcode' => 'Zip Code',
                            'homephoneno' => 'Home Phone #',
                            'dob' => 'Date of Birth',
                            'ssn' => 'Social Security No',
                            'dln' => 'Driver\'s License No',
                            'occupation' => 'Occupation',
                            'months' => 'Residence Months',

Hi,

Just a suggestion. It might be better and simpler
to store the imges as files on disk and not as BLOBs
and store in the DB only the reference to their path.
I think this performs better.

thats right, catalin, but ....
is it not possible do get a binary blob and write it to file, as it is?
... i cannot believe this ..., with any program language i can do so ...
...it have to be possible to write a blob-buffer byte by byte to a file,
damn ...

Hmph, just not quite doing the trick... If you'd be so kind here is the
complete source to give you a little bigger picture. As you can probably
see the point of the script is to generate a bar chart of the array.
Thanks so much for the help, let me know what you think!

Hi all
Has anyone been able to call php from a servlet (JAVA) using CGI
interface? I am trying to do that here, and everything seems to work without
problems, except that no data returns from the execution of my scripts. Any
idea what could be happening? Is there information on how to configure the
CGI variables in order to be able to call PHP? Thanx in advance...

Hi,

    I didn't quite understood what you mean by CGI in this case,
but if you reffer to calling a script which resides on a server via HTTP
protocol, i suggest you take a look at the java.net.* package, You can
use the java.net.URLConnection to connect to the PHP script and act
as a client (like a browser) for it from your servlet.
    You should het the response from the script back through the
getInputStream()
ar any other method that suits you.
    Also take a look at java.net.HttpURLConnection which has more
specific methods for dealing with HTTP.
    Once again, I may have misunderstood you, but I hope this is
helpfull anyhow.

Cheers,
Catalin

PHP4: 4.3.2

Likewise, my intention is to restrict the user within
'/home/ahank/public_html' when using fopen(), but allow the user to use
include() on files in '/usr/local/share/wl'. Here is my VirtualHost
config:

        php_admin_flag register_globals Off
        php_admin_flag safe_mode On
        php_admin_flag safe_mode_gid On
        php_admin_value include_path /usr/local/share/wl
        php_admin_value safe_mode_include_dir /usr/local/share/wl
        php_admin_value open_basedir /home/ahank/public_html

However, I get this error when loading a page which includes files in
this shared directory:

        Warning: main(): open_basedir restriction in effect.
        File(/usr/local/share/wl/hahaha.php) is not
        within the allowed path(s): (/home/ahank/public_html) in
        /home/ahank/public_html/test.php on line 3

Warning: main(hahaha.php): failed to open stream: Operation not
permitted in /home/ahank/public_html/test.php on line 3

        Warning: main(): Failed opening 'hahaha.php' for
        inclusion (include_path='/usr/local/share/wl') in
        /home/ahank/public_html/test.php on line 3

It would seem that 'safe_mode_include_dir' has nothing to do with
'open_basedir'. Is there an equivalent to 'open_basedir_include_dir'
which will allow one to only interpret files by way of
include/require?

I am in New Mexico and my php system is telling via date() that my timezone is BST (British standard time) and not MST (Mountain Standard Time). Any clue as to why it's doing this??

No, not really.

Btw, what editor are you using? And which browser are you testing the page with? Have you tried echo()ing Japanese characters from the same file, without include()ing?

You might want to check this section of the manual as well:
